Another Russian launch tradition fullfilled – after leaving the room for the last time, André Kuipers signed the door of suite 306 in the Cosmonaut Hotel where he has been staying for the last couple of weeks.
Leaving the hotel the crew was accompanied by members of their families – André took a moment to say farewell to his four children.
