MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 20th October, 2018) The final report on the failed Soyuz spacecraft launch and recommendations to the enterprises of the Russian space industry will be approved on October 30, Russia's Roscosmos State Space Corporation said in a statement on Saturday.
"The final report and the list of recommendations to the enterprises of the rocket and space industry will be approved on October 30, 2018, and presented to the chairman of the state commission for conducting flight tests of manned space systems," the statement said.
Russian state emergency commission for the investigation of the Soyuz spacecraft accident is chaired by Roscosmos chief Dmirty Rogozin.
On October 11, the Soyuz-FG launch vehicle failed to launch the Soyuz MS-10 spacecraft toward the ISS from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Just minutes after the liftoff, the mission was aborted due to the booster's malfunction. The two-man crew escaped in a rescue capsule and returned on Earth unharmed. Immediately afterward, the Russian side, which had built the booster, launched an investigation into the incident.
