They're heading to the International Space Station to join expedition 34.
The ground camera view of the expended boosters created an interesting image. It looked like a little constellation.
Chris Hadfield was aboard at the Soyuz. It was cool to see a Canadian heading uphill. First time in a long time. And cool knowing that he'll be taking command of the ISS in a couple of months.
Enjoyed the launch with fellow RASC members. We had a group chat on Facebook. It was a good turnout with Katrina, Manuel, Ed, Grace, Tony, Andy, Nicole, Sharmin, and Bill. Brenda and Eric jumped in while south of the border. It was fun. Phil didn't join us, unfortunately, while he watched the launch at home. Got thrown off my the "Facebook Live Chat" wording. And I, somehow, did not see him online. Everyone signed off and headed off to work.
I sent a follow-up note to the Yahoo!Group. Encouraged people to watch the ISS flyover tonight, if it was clear.
