Mission patch

Soyuz MS-11, launched successfully this morning about 6:30AM EST, is carrying three members of Expedition 58 to the International Space Station.  The crew consists of Commander Oleg Kononenko (Roscosmos), David Saint-Jacques (CSA) and Anne McClain (NASA).

They should arrive early this afternoon at the ISS.  Soyuz MS-11 was initially scheduled to launch December 20 but was moved to today after the failure of Soyuz MS-10 back in October.
