A Soyuz spacecraft carrying three new ISS crewmembers docked with the station Friday, two days after its launch. The Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft docked with the station's Rassvet module at 9:01 am EDT (1301 GMT), and hatches between the spacecraft and station opened a little more than two hours later. The Soyuz launched Wednesday from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. It brought to the station NASA astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor, ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Prokopyev.
