Successfully launched the Progress MS-10: green light for the Soyuz MS-11







            
On November 16, 2018 at 18:14 UTC a Soyuz-FG rocket with the cargo ship Progress MS-10 (11F615 # 440, also known as 71P for NASA) took off from the Gagarin Ramp in Baikonur. It is the fourth successful launch of a Soyuz rocket from the failure of the Soyuz MS-10 on October 11 and the first of a Soyuz-FG rocket, in addition to being the 90th successful orbital launch so far this year (and the 93rd in total). On October 25, a Soyuz-2.1b / Fregat-M took off from Plesetsk with the military satellite Kosmos 2528 - a spy satellite Lotos S1 - and a few days later, on November 3, another Soyuz-2.1b departed from the same ramp with a GLONASS satellite (Kosmos 2529). On November 7, a Soyuz ST-B / Fregat-M - a variant of Soyuz-2.1b - took off from French Guiana with the European satellite MetOp-C. Therefore, with the launch of the Progress MS-10 Roscosmos and the company RKTs Progress conclude the set of test flights destined to confirm that the Soyuz-FG failure of the Soyuz MS-10 was a timely event.

Recall that the research commission concluded that the problem of the Soyuz MS-10 launcher was the incorrect separation of one of the side blocks of the first stage due to a sensor that was damaged during the assembly in the Baikonur MIK-110 hangar. Luckily, the SAS system saved the lives of cosmonauts Alexéi Ovchinin and Nick Hague. In principle the Progress MS-10 had to take off using a Soyuz-2.1a, but Roscosmos decided to use a Soyuz-FG to make sure that this version of the launcher did an unmanned mission before the launch of the Soyuz MS-11.

The Progress MS-10, with a mass of 7,280 kg at launch, had on board 2,495 kg of cargo for the station, including 725 kg of fuel for the Zvezdá module, 440 kg of water, 24 kg of air, 50 kg of oxygen and 1,300 kg of pressurized load. For this mission a classic two-day trajectory was chosen and the Progress MS-10 was coupled with the axial port of the Zvezdá module of the ISS on November 18 at 19:28 UTC. On board the station are the members of Expedition 57, Alexander Gerst, Serena Auñón-Chancellor and Sergei Prokopyev.

As a curiosity, the Progress MS-10 has coincided in space with the Cygnus NG-10 S.S. John Young, the first cargo ship Cygnus launched after Orbital ATK was acquired by Northrop Grumman, which took off on November 18. Two cargo ships heading to the ISS at the same time is not usual. On December 3, the Soyuz MS-11 will take off with another Soyuz-FG with Oleg Kononenko, David Saint-Jacques and Anne McClain. Cross our fingers. Or better, we hope that nobody gives an improper blow to the end of one of the lateral blocks.

By the way, this release left us with another spectacular sequence filmed by a camera on the rocket, now at night:
