The most important space date of this year is approaching – 20 years of the ISS!

Thanks to the crew of the “Soyuz MS-08” spacecraft, we can now enjoy new photos of the International Space Station!

Thanks to cosmonaut Oleg Artemyev, NASA astronauts Andrew Feustel and Richard Arnold for this gift for the station’s jubilee, as well as everyone who participated in organizing a space photo shoot and in adjusting of the descent program of the spacecraft from orbit.
