International Space Station

The two ISS crew members aboard the Soyuz MS-10 are doing well after crash landing earlier this week - but those currently living on the space station are facing an uncertain departure date while the space capsule is grounded.

The investigation into a mysterious hole on a Russian ISS module has been left on a cliffhanger as several spacewalks had to be scrapped after a Soyuz rocket failed to bring two crewmembers aboard the station.

Breathtaking moments of the Soyuz dramatically aborting its mission were caught on a live feed of the event. The footage showed the ISS crew being severely shaken around as the booster failed mid-air before the feed cut out.

Despite space crews training for all kinds of emergencies, the recent Soyuz rocket failure has reminded everyone how dangerous their job actually is, Russian cosmonaut Elena Serova told RT.

NASA’s chief has vowed that his agency will discover the cause of a Soyuz rocket malfunction, which forced an ISS crew to abort their mission and make an emergency landing.

Russia's space agency, Roscosmos, has released footage of the ISS crew lounging on a couch with hot beverages and snacks after they were forced to make an emergency landing on Thursday.
