Earlier this week, the International Space Station welcomed a trio of new travelers. The mission brought NASA’s Jessica Meir, Russia’s Oleg Skripochka, and Hazzaa Al Almansoori of the United Arab Emirates to the space station, and as always, the arrival of new crew members was a big deal aboard the orbiting laboratory.
NASA astronaut Christina Koch, one of the current ISS residents, was particularly excited for the space travelers to arrive, thanks in large part to the fact that she considers Meir a close friend. While she was waiting for her space-faring buddy to arrive, Kock tweeted out an incredible photo she snapped of the Russian Soyuz spacecraft en route, and it’s a sight to behold.
