Working at home today. Enjoying the on-orbit eye candy...
Tally-ho!
Can you see it? A little spaceship over the cloud bank.
Closer now. You can make out equipment in the cargo bay. The large structure in the front half of the bay is the JAXA KIBO Exposed Facility.
Over an ocean. Beginning the RPM (Rendezvous Pitch Manoeuvre).
Belly flop! Start cameras...
RPM complete. Preparing to dock. Kubrick symmetry.
Grappled! Nice and smooth.
Docked!
