SpaceX cargo spacecraft CRS-21 arrives at Space Station

The upgraded SpaceX Cargo Dragon CRS-21 vehicle approaches the International Space Station on 7 December 2020 as both vehicles were orbiting above the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Mexico. Near the top right of the photograph is a portion of the SpaceX Crew Dragon vehicle docked to the forward port of the Harmony module. The Cargo Dragon would dock about an hour later to Harmony's space-facing port marking the first time two Dragon spaceships would be docked to the station at the same time.

The next Crew Dragon to launch will include ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet to return to the International Space Station to live for six months. He is training extensively for his second mission, called Alpha.
