SpaceX Dragon Crew 4 launched on Wednesday. Everything went as planned.

They'll be a little squashed in the ISS in the next few days: 11 people is really the limit at the moment. Crew 3's (including ESA's Matthias Maurer) return to earth is planned for 1 May at the moment, weather permitting.

They docked on the ISS in the early hours (CEST) of Thursday.
