Default Soyuz Rocket Launch Failure Forces Emergency Landing of Soyuz!


Soyuz Rocket Launch Failure Forces Emergency Landing for US-Russian
Space Station Crew

Stupid Russian reliability finally bit us in the ass. Luckily it sounds
like the crew survived the ballistic reentry and landing after the upper
stage failed to start. On Facebook someone said reentry G's were 6
point something. High, but survivable.

This comes on the heels of the hole, causing air loss, that was
discovered in the orbital module of one of the Soyuz capsules docked to
ISS.

We need to fly commercial crew test flights a.s.a.p. At this point it's
reportedly NASA "paperwork" that's delaying the program!
