The latest NASA mission has successfully carried US, Russian and Canadian crew to the International Space Station. The near-eight-hour journey set a record for a US craft to reach the ISS, and set an example for global cooperation in space, at a time of war and tension on earth. The space station itself has been tipped as a potential winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, which is announced in a few days. DW’s Gerhard Elfers talks to Professor Kai-Uwe Schrogl, political affairs advisor to the European Space Agency, about how the ISS has survived geopolitical crises. This mission is headed by astronaut Jessica Watkins, a trailblazer for women in spaceflight. Aerospace engineer Claudia Kessler tells us why we need more women in space.
