"We'll knock when we get there."

With the space shuttle's docking with the International Space Station this morning, I got up early to watch streaming video courtesy of NASA. I got the video going just in time to get some really cool pictures. After the flip maneuver which allowed the guys on the ISS to take pictures of Discovery's belly, Mission control relayed distances between the ISS and the shuttle as Commander Collins closed in on the space station. After one such relay, one of her crew members quipped, "We'll knock when we get there."

Here are some pictures I screen captured off the streaming video. I don't know about you, but to me they are awesome; totally worth getting up at 5:30 AM to see.
