ISS020-E-041307 (17 Sept. 2009) --- Backdropped by the blackness of space, the International Space Station's Canadarm2 grapples the unpiloted Japanese H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV) as it approaches the station. NASA astronaut Nicole Stott, Canadian Space Agency astronaut Robert Thirsk and European Space Agency astronaut Frank De Winne, all Expedition 20 flight engineers, used the station's robotic arm to grab the cargo craft and attach it to the Earth-facing port of the Harmony node. The attachment was completed at 5:26 (CDT) on Sept. 17, 2009.

ISS020-E-040881 (17 Sept. 2009) --- At the Canadarm2 work station in the Destiny laboratory, European Space Agency astronaut Frank De Winne monitors the unpiloted Japanese H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV) as it approaches the International Space Station. Once the HTV (visible on the computer screens) was in range, De Winne, NASA astronaut Nicole Stott (out of frame) and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Robert Thirsk (out of frame), all Expedition 20 flight engineers, used the station's robotic arm to grab the cargo craft and attach it to the Earth-facing port of the Harmony node.
