Chris Williams, who graduated with NASA's 23rd astronaut class last year, has been selected to fly to the International Space Station (ISS) on the upcoming Russian Soyuz MS-28 launch. Williams will spend about eight months living aboard the orbital laboratory, serving as Expedition 74 flight engineer.

NASA astronaut Jonny Kim and Russian cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritsky entered the ISS after a successful launch from Kazakhstan.
