Soyuz And Progress


One of the six Expedition 40 crew members positioned himself in the Cupola of the Earth-orbiting International Space Station to capture this image of two Russian spacecraft docked to the orbital outpost. The recently-docked Soyuz 39 (TMA-13M) spacecraft, which brought up the Expedition 40/41 crew, can be seen in the foreground docked to MRM1 (Rassvet); while cargo carrier Progress 55 is attached to Pirs in the background.
