ISS032-E-010605 (27 July 2012) --- Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Aki Hoshide (left) and NASA astronaut Joe Acaba, both Expedition 32 flight engineers, are pictured near the windows in the International Space Station’s Cupola as the unpiloted Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV-3) approaches the station. Hoshide and Acaba used the station's Canadarm2 robotic arm to capture and berth the HTV-3 to the Earth-facing port of the station's Harmony node. The attachment was completed at 10:34 a.m. (EDT) on July 27, 2012.
