NASA TV will carry the trip live, starting at 6 a.m. EDT. Expedition 11 Commander Sergei Krikalev and Flight Engineer John Phillips will leave the Station at 6:35 a.m. EDT, Tuesday. They will undock the Soyuz capsule from the Pirs Docking Compartment and fly a few feet to re-dock on the Zarya Module at approximately 7:11 a.m. EDT. The re-docking will allow the crew to use the Pirs for a spacewalk in August. Krikalev and Phillips are in the third month of a planned six-month mission. On Aug. 16, Krikalev will surpass the record for most cumulative time spent in space by any person, having accumulated more than 749 days on six space flights.
