After a two-day, in-orbit journey to the station, the spacecraft will dock autonomously to the aft port of the station's Zvezda module at approximately 1:27 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 13. NASA's rendezvous and docking coverage will begin at 12:30 p.m. on NASA+, Amazon Prime, and more. Learn how to watch NASA content through a variety of platforms, including social media.
