Yes they have. The Americans and Soviets used to be competitors in space travel during the Cold War, but once the Cold War ended so did the Space Race. Americans and Soviet have flown into space together and completed many missions together. Currently, the US will rely on Russia for transporting American astronauts into space as NASA shut this program down due to financial cut backs.
