The Soyuz FG launch vehicle carrying the Soyuz TMA-3 spacecraft is transferred to the launch pad at the Baikonour cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, on October 16, 2003, in preparation for the Cervantes mission to the International Space Station (ISS) with ESA astronaut Pedro Duque, from Spain. Pedro Duque was launched into space onboard Soyuz TMA-3 on October 18, with Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Kaleri and British-born NASA astronaut Michael Foale. Soyuz TMA-3 successfully docked with the ISS two days later.
