SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft, carrying four astronauts, docked with the International Space Station on Thursday evening. The crew includes NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, CSA astronaut Joshua Kutryk, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov. The spacecraft arrived at the orbital laboratory at 7:05 p.m. EDT and completed the docking to the Harmony module's forward port at 7-hours and 55-minutes.
This marked the quickest launch-to-docking of a U.S. spacecraft in the ISS's history. The crew will now perform standard leak checks and pressurization before the hatch opens around 8:45 p.m. NASA will continue to provide live coverage of the event across multiple platforms.
