The Soyuz-FG rocket booster with the Soyuz TMA-21 space ship carrying a new crew to the International Space Station flies in the sky at the Russian-leased Baikonur cosmodrome, Kazakhstan. Circular star tracks around the Polar Star and the track of the rocket are the result of a long time exposure. The Russian rocket carries US astronaut Ron Garan and Russian cosmonauts Alexander Samokytyaev and Andrei Borisenko.
