The next crewed mission to the International Space Station has launched from Kazakhstan. The Soyuz MS-28 mission, carrying two Roscosmos cosmonauts and a single NASA astronaut to the orbiting laboratory, lifted off from Site 31/6 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome on Thursday, Nov. 27, at 09:27 UTC. The mission marks the final launch to the Station as part of Expedition 73, with Expedition 74 set to begin in early December.
Following launch, the Soyuz spacecraft completed just two orbits of Earth before performing an automated docking with theRassvet module at 12:38 UTC on Thursday. Once docked to the Station, the Soyuz spacecraft was prepared for hatch opening, and the three crew members entered the Station. The Soyuz MS-28 crew is expected to live on the orbiting laboratory for eight months, with an undocking currently scheduled for late July 2026.
