On October 5, a Russian actor and a film director arrived at the International Space Station (ISS). The Russian crew beat Tom Cruise in the race to shoot the first movie in space. The project was announced last year by Tom Cruise along with NASA & Elon Musk’s SpaceX. 37-year-old actor Yulia Peresild & 38-year-old film director Klim Shipenko took off from the Russia-leased Baikonur Cosmodrome in ex-Soviet Kazakhstan as scheduled. The launch of the movie puts Russia on course to beat the United States in the latest chapter of the space race. Recently, SpaceX completed the first all-civilian project to space that took four untrained astronauts. In July, Richard Branson made a trip of several minutes in weightlessness. Days later, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos completed a similar mission. Watch the video to know more.
