Fox News
Four astronauts were successfully launched to the International Space Station by SpaceX and NASA early Thursday morning. They'll dock at the ISS on Friday for a six month stay.
The successful launch comes after the first attempt was scrubbed on Monday at the last minute because of a clogged filter in the engine ignition system.
