Washington. La reciclada cápsula Crew Dragon Endeavour de SpaceX, con cuatro astronautas a bordo, se acopló a la Estación Espacial Internacional (ISS) este sábado, la tercera vez que la compañía de Elon Musk lleva tripulantes a ese laboratorio orbital.

La primera fase del atraque tuvo lugar a las 9:08 a.m. (hora local) unos 420 km sobre el sur del Océano Índico, de acuerdo con imágenes transmitidas en directo por la Agencia Espacial de Estados Unidos (NASA).
