The Russian Federal Space Agency decided to delay the launch of Soyuz to transport people to the International Space Station (ISS) until November 12.
The Russian Federal Space Agency decided to delay the launch of Soyuz to transport people to the International Space Station (ISS) until November 12.
The plan to launch the ship brought three astronauts to ISS on September 22 canceled after the Progress ship exploded with Soyuz boosters after being launched on August 24. This was the first defeat in 44 Progress ship launches.
Soyuz rockets are also used to propel spacecraft with people. So Roskomos wanted to find out the cause of the Progress of the transport ship explosion and fix the Soyuz missile problem before launching a ship to send people to ISS.
Six astronauts are working on ISS. They will return to earth with two flights - one on September 16 and one in mid-November.
The US Aeronautics Agency (NASA) worries that the ISS may be in a state of no-one if Russia cannot solve the problem of Soyuz missiles. Astronauts have been working continuously on ISS for nearly 11 years.
The AP reported Roskomos announced that it would continue to launch transports on October, December and January next year. Analysts say any of the three flights will negatively affect the future of ISS.
Russia has witnessed 4 failures in the universe over the past 10 months. Last December, a rocket fell into the Pacific while bringing three telecommunications satellites into orbit. A military satellite went missing in February this year. In mid-August, Russia's most modern communications satellite was also missing.
