Shuttle Endeavour will thunder into orbit this week with an American flag on its right wing. The ship will carry its most international crew ever launched. The spaceship is headed for the International Space Station. Four Americans are on board, along with Russian, Canadian, and Italian astronauts. This multinational crew will be symbolic of those who will work and live on the growing outpost. The station is a joint project of 16 nations on four continents.

The answer is B. The cultural crew aboard the space station. A. is wrong because the Russian crew are mentioned once. C. is wrong because the flag is only the representation on the multinational crew. D. is wrong because the text does not say that the ISS is new. Hope this helps:)
