The National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States has announced that American astronaut Tracy Dyson will travel to the ISS on the Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft. This will happen in March 2024.
Dyson will fly [to the ISS] aboard the Russian Soyuz MS-25 in March 2024 and will spend about six months aboard the International Station.
Interestingly, another cosmonaut not from Russia will travel to the ISS as part of the same mission, and for the first time. This will be Belarusian Marina Vasilevskaya. She will be accompanied by Russian cosmonaut Oleg Novitsky. Novitsky and Vasilevskaya will spend 12 days in orbit, while Tracy Dyson will stay until the fall of 2024. At the same time, the American has already spent 188 days at the ISS - she flew into orbit in 2007 and 2010.
NASA astronauts' flights on a Russian ship take place within the framework of an agreement between Roscosmos and the American space agency on cross-flights. Roscosmos and NASA are currently working on a new agreement on cross-flights for 2024-2025.
