At their Cosmonaut Hotel crew quarters in Baikonur, Kazakhstan, the next trio of crewmembers who will launch to the International Space Station brush up on rendezvous techniques May 10, 2012 by “flying” an approach to the station on a laptop computer simulator as they prepare for liftoff. With their instructor (far left) are Expedition 31/32 Flight Engineer Joe Acaba of NASA (second from left), Soyuz Commander Gennady Padalka and Flight Engineer Sergei Revin (right). They will launch May 15 on the Soyuz TMA-04M spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome to begin a four-month mission on the orbital outpost.
