Army Lt. Col. Frank Rubio, a NASA astronaut, is set to fly to the International Space Station with two Russian cosmonauts, Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitry Petelin, from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on Sept. 21.

Nope. Don't like dealing with Russia in any way.Note: Why would the U.S. even consider working with Putin/Russia where there is a War in Ukraine that is caused by them????? Are WE missing something????
