Expedition 23 Launches
| Early this morning, Soyuz TMA-18 launched from Baikonur. Onboard is the Expedition 23 crew: astronaut Tracy Caldwell Dyson and Russian cosmonauts Alexander Skvortsov and Mikhail Kornienko. Expeditions 23 and 24 were my last crews as an MCG Instructor. Early Sunday morning they will dock to the International Space Station (ISS) and become residents. |

| This trailer aired before Avatar at my local IMAX theatre. It looks really cool. It's weird seeing people I know on a giant screen and in 3D. |
