Astronauts together step into wind (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

space crew

'astronauts together' is the definition.
(team of astronauts)

'step into wind' is the wordplay.
'step' becomes 'pace' (pace is a kind of step).
'into' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'wind' becomes 'screw' (wind round can mean to screw up).
'pace' going inside 'screw' is 'SPACE CREW'.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
