After usually one to two weeks Crew-6 will pack up their spacecraft and return home, completing its mission on the orbiting laboratory.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the successful launch of Crew-7, the next step on its journey will be arriving at the ISS. Arrival is set to finish at 10:33 A.M. ET with a hatch opening to Dragon. Then a formal welcome ceremony will be performed with all the members currently staying at the station before getting right into work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crew-7 will dock on the space-facing side of the Harmony module, one of two ports available to spacecraft equipped with the International Docking Adaptor or IDA. The IDA was developed to be used as an international standard for docking spacecraft to stations and is currently being used by SpaceX on the Crew Dragon and Dragon 2, by Boeing\u2019s Starliner vehicle, and by Sierra Space\u2019s Dreamchaser spaceplane.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Right now only the two vehicles from SpaceX are operational.
