The failure of the mission, which was to provide astronauts two and a half tons of equipment, including food, oxygen and fuel. Unmanned transportation spacecraft Progress due to technical glitches will not be able to moor to the International Space Station.
The head of Russian space agency Roskosmos, Igor Komarov and exchanged a list of serious problems that have arisen after take-off ship from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. – In connection with this, its further flight as planned, and docking to the International Space Station is impossible – added the head of Roskosmosu. This means that Progress will burn in the Earth’s atmosphere. Yesterday the media reported that scientists after the start they could not establish communication with the ship and even that he slipped them completely out of control.
NASA assured earlier that if the mission ends in failure, the astronauts from the International Space Station that will not be affected. They still have enough food for four months.
