Backup crew members for Expedition 24 go through briefings and other prelaunch preparations at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Wearing flight suits, from the left, are Russian cosmonaut Dmitri Kondratiev, European Space Agency astronaut Paolo Nespoli and NASA astronaut Cady Coleman. Not far away (out of frame), prepping for the June 16 scheduled launch aboard the Soyuz TMA-19 spacecraft, are the prime crew members, who appear in other photos in this series.
