"The video recorder and telemetry data of Soyuz-FG, which had an accident during the launch on October 11, were delivered to RSC Energia for examination and in order to draw conclusions. The results of the analysis will be sent to the commission established to investigate the incident. Roscosmos is in constant contact with NASA on the issue of sending a US cargo ship to the ISS if needed," Russia's space agency Roscosmos said Thursday in a statement.
Earlier in the day, a Sputnik's source stated that a subcommission that closely cooperates with foreign partners has been created, and it would be engaged in considering the options for ISS further exploitation; it suggests both studying the negative scenario of the station's temporary shutdown and the elaboration of a new flight schedule.
