Baker, mission commander, shortly after docking and hatch opening. Blaha had just joined the NASA crew, having served as a cosmonaut guest researcher aboard Russia's Mir Space Station since mid September 1996. The photograph was taken with an Electronic Still Camera (ESC), which was used throughout the 10-day mission to downlink current photographs of the crews' joint activities.
