New Expedition 73 Crew & Guest Photos | International Space Station

NASA's SpaceX Crew-10 members pose inside the vestibule between their SpaceX Dragon crew spacecraft and the International Space Station's forward port on the Harmony module. Clockwise from bottom are, NASA astronauts Nichole Ayers and Anne McClain, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov of Russia. The walls of the vestibule are lined with mission stickers and crew signatures left by previous visitors who docked at Harmony’s forward port.
