On August 26, the "Soyuz MS-13" spacecraft was successfully redocked from the "Zvezda" service module to the "Poisk" small research module of the Russian segment of the International Space Station.

On August 24 due to technical reasons the docking of the spacecraft with the ISS in automatic mode did not take place. In order to ensure conditions for its docking on August 26, it is planned to re-dock the "Soyuz MS-13" spacecraft from the "Zvezda" service module to the "Poisk" small research module of the Russian segment of the ISS.

According to RIA news agency today, on August 24, the "Soyuz MS-14" spacecraft with the "Fedor" robot on board could not dock with the ISS at the scheduled time.

On July 29, 2019, the "Progress MS-11" cargo spaceship undocked from the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS). At 17:23, the ship entered the dense layers of the atmosphere, and at 17:32, the fireproof fragments of its construction sank in a given area of the non-navigable Pacific Ocean waters.

The crew members of the "Soyuz MS-13" spacecraft at 04:04 (Moscow time) on July 21, 2019 steped on board of the International Space Station. Docking in an automatic mode was made approximately after 6 hours, at 01:48 (Moscow time) on July 21, 2019.

Today, on July 19, 2019, a pre-launch press conference of the main and backup crews of the "Soyuz MS-13" manned spacecraft was held at the Test Training Center of the GCTC at Baikonur. Earlier today, the State Commission approved the crews of the "Soyuz MS-13" spacecraft. In accordance with the flight program of the International Space Station, on July 20, 2019, at 19:28 (Moscow time), the "Soyuz MS-13" spacecraft is scheduled to launch from site № 1 of the Baikonur cosmodrome.

On June 28, 2019, after the meeting of the Interdepartmental Commission and the pre-flight press conference, the main crew (Alexander Skvortsov, Luca Parmitano and Andrew Morgan) and the back-up crew (Sergey Ryzhikov, Thomas Marshburn and Soichi Noguchi) of the ISS-60/61 visited memorable places, associated with the history of the cosmonautics. The cosmonauts and astronauts laid flowers and paid tribute to the chief designer of the spacecrafts Sergey Korolev, the discoverer of the space Yuri Gagarin and other cosmonauts, buried in the necropolis near the Kremlin wall.

The crew of the "Soyuz MS-11" spacecraft, undocked today from the International Space Station (ISS), safely returned to Earth. The landing capsule with cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko, astronauts David Saint-Jacques and Anne McClain landed on June 25, 2019 at 05:48 (Moscow time).

The work of the 59th long expedition is being completed at the International Space Station (ISS). The crew members of the "Soyuz MS-11" spacecraft - Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko, CSA astronaut David Saint-Jacques and NASA astronaut Anne McClain are preparing to return to Earth. The closing of the access hatches between the "Soyuz MS-11" and the ISS is scheduled at 23:10 (Moscow time) on June 24, undocking - at 02:25 (Moscow time) on June 25 and landing of the descent vehicle - at 05:49 (Moscow time) in 148 km south-east of Zhezkazgan (Kazakhstan).

After passing the theoretical examinations, the ISS-60/61 crews began practical tests on simulators. Today, the commanders of the main and backup crews of the "Soyuz MS-13" sapcecraft Alexander Skvortsov and Sergey Ryzhikov passed the examination exercises on the specialized "Teleoperator" simulator for testing the teleoperative control of the "Progress MS" cargo spaceship. The commanders of the main and backup crews of "Soyuz MS-13" spacecraft brilliantly passed the task, having received excellent marks on the exam. The Commission, chaired by Valery Korzun, Head of the 1st Department of the GCTC, Hero of the Russian Federation, Pilot-Cosmonaut of the Russian Federation, noted the clarity of reporting and determining the relative motion parameters of "Progress MS" spacecraft and the ISS, as well as confident and competent actions of operators.
