Russia's manned spacecraft docked with ISS | A Russian Soyuz spacecraft carrying a crew
of three has docked at the International Space Station (ISS), the Russian Federal
Space Agency Roscosmos said Thursday. The spaceship docked with the Russian Poisk
module aboard the space station at 8:38 Moscow time (0438 GMT) in automatic mode,
the space agency said. The Soyuz rocket, carrying the manned spacecraft, blasted
off from the Baikonur space center in Kazakhstan on Tuesday with Russian cosmonauts
Gennady Padalka and Sergei Revin, and NASA astronaut Joe Acaba. It was crew
commander
Padalka's fourth space flight and first space trip for environmental engineer
Revin. California-born hydrogeologist Acaba, who performed his first spacewalk
in 2009, is celebrating his 45th birthday in space on Thursday.
