Moscow - Two Russians and an American began setting up home in the International Space Station yesterday after docking with the potential base for interplanetary travel.

A flight commentator said to applause at mission control outside Moscow that Russians Mr Yuri Gidzenko and Mr Sergei Krikalyov and American Mr William Shepherd linked the module with the $60 billion ISS close to the scheduled time. The crew entered the ISS and set up a camera to beam the first pictures back to Earth.
