#Luna25 experienced a collision with the lunar surface after performing a maneuver on August 19 to transfer from a circular lunar orbit to an elliptical pre-landing orbit. Very soon Roscosmos reported that the propulsion system worked for 127 sec instead of the planned 84 sec.
This is the cushioning chair. It’s universal, so any crew member can use it. But it cannot be used without a special individually made bed, or lodgement.
1. About the leak in #SoyuzMS22: it was caused by a micrometeorite of the Geminids. The version of the manufacturing defect was carefully considered and didn’t find confirmation.


1. According to preliminary information, the damage could have been caused by the micrometeoroid or space debris hit into the external cooler radiator located on the service module of the Soyuz MS-22 spacecraft.
Since it's the 65th anniversary of the Sputnik launch, and the event took place at IKI RAN, there was a lot of talks about the scientific space program, which is rare these days.
2/х. The new Sokol-M spacesuit as well as the Cheget shock-absorbing seat are designed specifically for #Oryol spacecraft and cannot be used in Soyuz-MS due to the difference in the life support system. The flight models will be ready when Oryol is ready to fly.
At the first phase, #ROSS will be placed on a solar-synchronous orbit with an altitude of 334 km and inclination of 96.8°. Later it will be changed to 372 km and 96.9°. This will allow to observe most of the territory of Russia (and not only Russia, as Soloviev noticed).
As usual, Rogozin haven’t said that directly. Here is the quote: “Despite Germany's demand to turn off one of the two telescopes on the Spektr-RG, Russian specialists insist on continuing its work. In the near future, Roscosmos will make appropriate decisions.” ⤵️

The Museum is located on the cosmodrome and has a lot of unique exhibits in its collection. The cosmonauts and astronauts traditionally visit it before the launch and leave their signatures on the wall.
The article contains interesting photos like this one. This is the place where the first crack was found - of course, the photo was taken in the test mockup. It's a twin of the real Zvezda module, and is used to rehearse all the operations before they are performed in orbit.



1. Covid-19 in Roscosmos: 42 men infected, 4 of them recovered. 2 employees died, Roscosmos will help their families. Baikonur and Vostochny still free from virus. Roscosmos takes all the measures to prevent their staff from infection and will continue to work on ISS launches.
It is forbidden to make photos inside the perimeter of RSC Energia, so I can show you only the entrance and the #Vostok rocket that stays on the territory. There is written on the entrance building: "Space begins here!".
