The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, with Expedition 72 crew members NASA astronauts Nick Hague, Suni Williams, and Butch Wilmore, as well as Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, autonomously redocked with the space-facing port of the station's Harmony module at 7:25 a.m. EST.

The port relocation frees up Harmony's forward-facing port for the 31st SpaceX commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station, which is scheduled to launch no earlier than 9:29 p.m., Monday, Nov. 4. This was the fifth port relocation of a Dragon spacecraft with crew aboard following previous moves during the Crew-1, Crew-2, Crew-6, and Crew-8 missions.
