It was a big day for NASA as we got to see the four astronauts who will be part of the SpaceX Crew-6 mission.The crew is made up of two NASA astronauts, a Russian cosmonaut and an astronaut from the United Arab Emirates.The crew was asked today about the advantage of having such a diverse crew on this mission.”I think the advantage of having a multicultural crew is fairly obvious as far as having a Russian cosmonaut on board. That really balances out so that each of the countries will always have some presence on the International Space Station,” Crew-6 Spacecraft Commander Stephen Bowen said. The targeted launch date for the mission is no earlier than Sunday, Feb. 26.
