This photo shows the launch pad at Baikonur Cosmodrome awaiting a Soyuz rocket launching tomorrow for the International Space Station. Of note on this crew swap is Charles Simonyi, the fifth private explorer to visit the ISS (in spring 2007), who revisits the station for a twelve-day stay. He will return to Earth with swapped crew members (also in a Soyuz capsule, which is being swapped out for the one he arrives in.) Looks like he’ll just miss the crew of STS-119, which undocks from the ISS later today.

Godspeed, Charles!
