This maneuver makes room for the upcoming Soyuz TMA-11M docking in early November. Soyuz TMA-11M will dock with the complex before Soyuz TMA-09M returns home meaning 9 crew members onboard the complex for several days. Soyuz TMA-11M will also bring up the Soichi 2014 Winter Olympics Torch that will be taken out on a Spacewalk before returning back to Earth on Soyuz TMA-09M.
