"It turns out Friday the 13th is a very lucky day," SpaceX Launch Control radioed once the astronauts reached orbit.
The quartet's arrival will take the ISS back up to its normal complement of seven crewmembers. The station has been staffed by just three astronauts — one American and two Russians — since Jan. 15, when SpaceX's Crew-11 mission departed for Earth.
The NASA SpaceX Crew-6 astronauts NASA's Stephen Bowen and Woody Hoburg, the United Arab Emirates' Sultan Al Neyadi and Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev moved Crew Dragon Endeavour to another International Space Station docking port.
