ISS Update Rumor
It was reported recently that Expedition 10 commander Leroy Chiao would replace Bill McArthur as commander of Expedition 9, to launch in April. Now, there are unconfirmed reports that the new Expedition 9 crew will be swapped with the new Expedition 10 crew, Gennadi Padalka and Edward "Mike" Fincke. No word on why, though there have been rumors of concern from the RSA about launching an Expedition crew with two members with no long-duration experience.
