A Russian rocket blasted off successfully on Friday carrying a trio of Russian cosmonauts to the International Space Station.
Russian space corporation Roscosmos cosmonauts Oleg Artemyev, Denis Matveyev and Sergey Korsakov safely reached a designated orbit in their Soyuz MS-21 spacecraft minutes after launching at 8:55 pm Friday (11:55 a.m. EDT) from the Russia-leased Baikonur launch facility in Kazakhstan.[1]
It'll be a quick trip to the orbiting lab for the Russian trio; their Soyuz is scheduled to dock with the station's Prichal module at 3:05 p.m. EDT (1905 GMT) on Friday, just three hours after launch. You can watch the milestone live beginning at 2:15 p.m. EDT (1815 GMT). You can also tune in for a hatch opening ceremony, which is expected to take place around 5:30 p.m. EDT (2130 GMT).
The trio will return to Earth aboard a Soyuz on March 30. The space station will get yet more visitors soon.[2]
Remaining on board the ISS with the newcomers until the next rotation two months later are three NASA astronauts – Tom Marshburn, Raja Chari and Kayla Barron – and German crew mate Matthias Maurer of the European Space Agency.
Those four crew members arrived together in November on board a SpaceX Crew Dragon craft launched from NASA’s Kennedy Space centre in Florida to begin a six-month stint in orbit.[3]
