The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft was captured at 15:56 CEST (13:56 UT) today. Operating the Station’s robotic arm, Canadarm2, NASA astronaut Don Pettit grappled the Dragon, commenting: “Looks like we got ourselves a Dragon by the tail!”.

After Dragon is berthed to the Harmony module’s Earth-facing port the hatches will open Saturday morning and the crew will ingress to begin several days of docked operations.

Launched from Florida on Tuesday, the Dragon spacecraft is carrying food and supplies for the Station crew. Dragon is the first privately built spacecraft to visit the ISS.
