Russia has launched three people into space to make part of a feature film in orbit. The crew include a veteran cosmonaut, a movie director and an actress. They plan to film segments for the movie "Challenge" - the first feature movie to be filmed in space. They will return to Earth after 12 days. Separately, a Hollywood project was also announced earlier this year by NASA involving Tom Cruise with plans to film a $200-million space epic in outer space.
