"Crew 9 has arrived at the International Space Station. Docking is complete." mission control in Houston said moments later, at 5:30 pm EDT.
The crew, Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, is scheduled to float through a hatch where the two craft are connected and enter the ISS at about 6:30 p.m. EDT. This is Hague's second trip to the ISS, Gorbunov's first.
