Uploader comment: Russian cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko manually docked the Soyuz TMA-19M spacecraft on December 15, 2015 to the International Space Station's Rassvet module after an initial automated attempt was aborted. Malenchenko took control of the Soyuz, backed it away from the station to assess the Soyuz' systems, then re-approached the complex for the manual docking.
