CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — The International Space Station's population has swelled to 11 with the arrival of SpaceX's third crew capsule in less than a year. 

It's the biggest crowd up there in more than a decade. A recycled SpaceX capsule carrying four astronauts arrived at the space station on Saturday, a day after launching from Florida. 

The new arrivals _ representing the U.S., France and Japan _ will spend six months at the space station. 

They'll replace four astronauts who will return to Earth in their own Dragon capsule Wednesday.
