A Soyuz spacecraft docked with the International Space Station Wednesday evening, doubling the population of the orbiting outpost. The Soyuz TMA-10M spacecraft docked with the Poisk module of the ISS at 10:45 pm EDT Wednesday (0245 GMT Thursday), and hatches between the Soyuz and station opened nearly two hours later. The Soyuz made the flight from the launch pad at Baikonur to the station in less than six hours. The Soyuz brought to the station Russian cosmonauts Oleg Kotov and Sergey Ryazanskiy and American astronaut Michael Hopkins, who join Russian Fyodor Yurchikhin, American Karen Nyberg, and Italian Luca Parmitano on the station.
