Standing left to right are Commander Lee Archambault, Pilot Tony Antonelli, and Mission Specialists Joseph Acaba, Steve Swanson, Richard Arnold, John Phillips and Koichi Wakata, who represents the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. Wakata will fly on the mission to the International Space Station to remain behind as a member of the Expedition 18 crew.
