Rocket Headed for International Space Station Aborts After Launcher Failure!


An incident took place during the Oct. 11 launch of a Soyuz spacecraft carrying two men to the International Space Station, with the status of the spacecraft and crew currently unknown. Luckily both NASA astronaut and Russian counterpart return to earth and are reported safe.



The pair lifted off in Kazakhstan at around 2:40 p.m. local time from the Russia-leased Baikonur Cosmodrome atop a Soyuz booster rocket.

The pair was set to dock at the space station six hours after launch, but the booster rocket failed minutes after launch.
A Soyuz failure could threaten continued operation of the International Space Station. Soyuz is currently the only means for crews to travel to and from the station, with commercial crew vehicles by Boeing and SpaceX not expected to be ready to enter service before the middle of 2019.
