The maneuver was streamed live on NASA's TV channel and websiteThe Soyuz spacecraft can be seen during flight in the middle of this image. Ryzhikov, Kud-Sverchkov and Rubins arrived on the space station in the Soyuz capsule after launching from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan in October. The crew members moved the spacecraft from the Rassvet module, which has an Earth-facing port, and relocated it to the Poisk docking port, which faces space.
