Russian cosmonauts of the International Space Station (ISS) will transfer to Soyuz MS-19 to hide from space debris. This is reported by TASS.

Experts from the Moscow Region Mission Control Center recommended that the Russian crew proceed to the Soyuz MS-19 spacecraft. This is due to the expectation of a rendezvous with space debris that will fly by near the ISS.

“According to the updated data, the next rendezvous time is 7:06 (10:06 Moscow time – comment of” Lenta.ru “). Therefore, we suggest that you go to Soyuz at 7:00 (10:00 Moscow time), ”the astronauts were told on the ISS. At about 10:00 Moscow time, MCC specialists are awaiting a report from the expedition members.
