SpaceX got the job done: the Dragon capsule has docked with the International Space Station!

Actually, they opened the hatch early because they had the munchies (hat-tip to SpaceFlightNow.com).

“Looks like we’ve tamed the Dragon,” radioed space station commander Suni Williams. “We’re happy she’s on-board with us. Thanks to everyone at SpaceX and NASA for bringing her here to us, and the ice cream.”

Judging by their launch manifest, I’d say these SpaceX folks are for real and will be around for many years.
