Russia returns Soyuz rocket to flight
As expected, Russia returned the Soyuz launch vehicle to flight in a
startlingly short amount of time. Russia returns Soyuz rocket to flight with Lotos-S1 mission written by William Graham October 24, 2018 https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2018...ight-lotos-s1- mission/ From above: Thursday's launch had originally been scheduled to take place last week but slipped a few days in the immediate aftermath of the MS-10 launch. Naturally, this schedule slip of just a few days indicates how thoroughly Russia investigated the failed crewed launch of Soyuz and how diligently they inspected this Soyuz launch vehicle for any other quality control problems. /s Of course, NASA Spaceflight rarely paints less than a perfectly rosy picture of anything that NASA does, so I didn't expect them to be openly critical of Russia's launch operations. After all, NASA keeps telling us that everything is fine and that we'll continue to fly NASA astronauts on Soyuz. Nothing to see here, just move along.
