SpaceX MCC gave go for approach from 30m. Waiting on Houston MCC and ISS to give go.

EDIT: For note, arrival at 30m was just 5 minutes prior. Very quick. Was a planed 25 minute hold.

Due to smooth approach, go to proceed to capture point is close (may catch up on some lost time in the RNDZ timeline).
