[b]Expedition 25 Trio Closes Hatches, Prepares for Undocking[/b] Outgoing ISS Expedition 25 commander Douglas Wheelock and flight engineers Shannon Walker and Fyodor Yurchikhin have entered the Soyuz TMA-19 spacecraft and closed the hatches. At 8:23 p.m. EST they'll undock from the International Space Station for a landing in Kazakhstan at 11:46 p.m. (10:46 a.m. on Friday local time). Staying behind on the ISS are Expedition 26 commander Scott Kelly and flight engineers Alexander Kaleri and Oleg Skripochka. Although the ceremonial change-of-command ceremony occurred Wednesday, their increment officially begins when Soyuz TMA-19 undocks.
