The Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft took a short spin around the International Space Station to switch parking spots, easing the way for another spaceship’s arrival later this week. In what was billed as a “Sunday drive” in space by NASA, Russia’s space agency’s Alexander Skortsov manually steered the Soyuz spacecraft to the spot on the station’s Poisk module. The manoeuvre clears the craft’s former docking port, at the aft end of the station’s Zvezda module, for an unmanned Soyuz that had to abort its own attempt to rendezvous on Saturday. (Photo/VCG)
