Once the hatch was opened, Kim and Russians were shown smiling and hugging their comrades at the station, now 10 people, including four NASA astronauts, five Russians and Japanese astronaut Takua Onishi.

President Vladimir Putin’s investment messenger on Tuesday welcomed the US-Russian space cooperation after the Russian rocket blast for ISS.
Kiril Dimitriv, who is trying to reset into the US-Russian relations in Washington last week, said that Tuesday’s launch was the latest example of a lasting relationship that discovered its history in 1975.
This was when the International Space Mission jointly conducted by the United States was jointly performed and the Soviet Union saw an apollo and a soyuz doc in space.
The mission, which had the first international handshake in space, symbolized the Detent of the Cold War.
Dimitriv said on Tuesday, “Russian and American cooperation in the space industry continues even today.”
Despite broaden the US sanctions imposed on Moscow on its war in Ukraine, space is an area where cooperation continues.
Dmitriev, who spoke on the possibility of Russian-American investment combined in the Arctic and in the development of the Russian rare Earth, said that Moscow billionaire can supply a small atomic power plant for a mission for Mars employed by Moscow billionaire entrepreneur and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.
However, with the ISS near the end of its service life, Russia plans to go alone with its own space station, for which it plans to launch the first two modules in 2027. It is also expanding its cooperation with China in space exploration.
