Redaksiya · Media ·

Following a four-month repair period, the first rocket launch has been carried out from Russia's Baikonur Cosmodrome. As part of this launch, the 'Soyuz-2.1a' rocket carried the 'Progress MS-33' spacecraft into orbit. This mission, conducted from the repaired launch pad, is the 94th resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS).

Redaksiya reports that after the launch on March 22, the 'Progress MS-33' spacecraft, carrying over 2.5 tons of cargo, successfully docked with Russia's 'Poisk' module on March 24. This event is of significant importance for the resupply of the space station.

The recommissioning of the repaired launch pad is of great importance for the continuity of Russia's space programs and the uninterrupted delivery of supplies to the International Space Station. This successful launch also creates a reliable foundation for future space missions.
