1st 6 hooks are closed in the hard capture sequence, second set occurring now.

Hard capture complete, and with that, the docking sequence is complete! Dragon is now one with the ISS

Hard capture comes at 11:12 Easter 8:12 pacific time.

CORE: docking sequence complete, welcome to the ISS resilience

Siuguchi with some words in Japanese, finishing with all for one, crew one for all!

Go for suit doffing

And with that, I am off to bed.

Cool view of Dragon docked to space station live from the ISS as Kate readies the apex hatch to open

Letting air rush into the vacuum filled vestibule is apparently very loud according to Kate Rubins.
