Preparations are underway at Baikonur to send another international crew to the ISS.
According to «Roscosmos», «Soyuz MS-25» has already been assembled into a «package» for launch from Baikonur. The «package» includes the first and second stages of the rocket, which include five blocks: the central one and four lateral ones. Later, the ship will undergo pneumatic tests, autonomous and comprehensive tests, and general assembly of the carrier.
The launch of the «Soyuz MS-25» spacecraft was planned for March 13, but was later postponed to March 21. It is noteworthy that a Belarusian cosmonaut will fly on it for the first time. Marina Vasilevskaya and her understudy Anastasia Lenkova have been preparing for the flight for eight months.
Also, Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Novitsky and NASA astronaut Tracy Dyson are waiting to be sent to the ISS on this ship.
