The Russians say a replacement Soyuz can be launched if one suffering from a coolant leak is unflightworthy.
Russian managers are assessing whether a damaged Soyuz spacecraft docked at the International Space Station can safely carry its three-man crew back to Earth in late March as planned or whether a replacement must be launched to take its place, officials said Monday.
If the engineers conclude the vehicle is still flightworthy, cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin, along with NASA astronaut Frank Rubio, could use it as planned to return to Earth in late March to wrap up a 187-day stay in space. The damaged Soyuz MS-22/68S crew ship, its solar wings extended, is seen docked to the Earth-facing port of the Russian Rassvet module . The Russian Nauka laboratory module is visible to the right.He was referring to the Soyuz MS-23/69S spacecraft already at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan undergoing normal pre-flight testing for launch on March 16, carrying cosmonauts Oleg Kononenko, Nikolai Chub and NASA astronaut Loral O'Hara to the space station.
