Six NASA astronauts and a Russian cosmonaut take a break from training to pose for the crew portrait. Astronaut Kent V. Rominger, mission commander, is at left on the front row. Astronaut Rick D. Husband, pilot, is right. The remaining astronauts are Ellen Ochoa (front center) and, from the left on the back row, Daniel T. Barry, Julie Payette, Valeriy I. Tokarev, and Tamara Jernigan, all mission specialists. Payette represents the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and Tokarev is with the Russian Space Agency (RSA). The crew will perform the first station docking and will become the first visitors to the new International Space Station (ISS) since its launch and start of orbital assembly last year. Space Shuttle Discovery's launch date is now scheduled for May 20.
