Description: Nine crew members gather for a group portrait in the International Space Station's Kibo laboratory following a joint crew news conference. This is the first time since October 2009 that nine people have resided on the station without the presence of a space shuttle. Pictured on the front row are Russian cosmonaut Fyodor Yurchikhin (center), Expedition 37 commander; NASA astronaut Karen Nyberg and European Space Agency astronaut Luca Parmitano, both Expedition 37 flight engineers. Pictured on the center row are Russian cosmonaut Oleg Kotov (center), Expedition 38 commander; Russian cosmonaut Sergey Ryazanskiy (left) and NASA astronaut Michael Hopkins, both Expedition 38 flight engineers. Pictured from the left (back row) are NASA astronaut Rick Mastracchio, Russian cosmonaut Mikhail Tyurin and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Koichi Wakata, all Expedition 38 flight engineers. The Expedition 37 crew members will undock from the station in their Soyuz TMA-09M spacecraft on Nov. 10, ending a five-and-a-half month stay.
