Soyuz docking with International Space Station

NASA has released a video documenting the Russian Soyuz capsule as it docked with the International Space Station on March 27th. The launch marked the start of the "One Year" Mission, which is studying the long-term effects of microgravity on the human body.

The video shows the last 15 minutes of the docking procedure. Though it's significantly sped up, the clip lets you appreciate the remarkable 17,000 mph, in-orbit dance that brings the capsule and space station together. The shot was taken from aboard the Soyuz capsule.

The video is from the Soyuz-TMA 16M spacecraft docking with the Russian Mini Research Module 2 (MRM2) “Poisk” on the zenith node of the Service Module “Zvezda”. (Just in case you were planning to visit, and wanted to know where to park.)
