ISS Orientation in Space Restored With Help of Russian Segment Engines
10:56 GMT 15.10.2021 (Updated: 11:32 GMT 15.10.2021) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The International Space Station (ISS) restored its orientation in space on Friday with the help of engines of the Russian segment, according to astronauts' negotiations with the flights’ control centre, broadcast by NASA.
Earlier in the day, the ISS lost its orientation in space while testing engines of the Soyuz MS-18 manned spacecraft, which will bring the "cinema crew" back to Earth this weekend.
"The orientation of the station was promptly restored thanks to the actions of the personnel of the ISS Russian Segment Main Operational Control Group. Nothing threatens the station and the crew," the Russian Rocket and Space Corporation Energia, part of the Roscosmos, said.
Previously, cosmonaut Anton Shkaplerov told the Moscow region-based mission control centre that they had "received an emergency message from colleagues [from the US segment of the ISS] about the loss of orientation".
The centre explained that this was a test of the Soyuz MS-18 motion control system, which is usually carried out with activated engines.
