iss073e1197220 (Nov. 26, 2025) --- This close-up view from a window on the International Space Station's cupola shows Northrop Grumman's Cygnus XL cargo craft in the grips of the Canadarm2 robotic arm. Cygnus XL had been temporarily released from its Earth-facing port on the Unity module to make room for the Soyuz MS-28 crew spacecraft, which was scheduled to arrive the next day and dock to the Rassvet module. A solar array belonging to JAXA's (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) HTV-X1 cargo craft extends across the frame.
