#Soyuz is drifting away from ISS without firing thrusters for two minutes to open a 20-meter gap. Flight Controls are switching into the B1 flight mode to re-enable thrusters. ISS is going into inertial snap & hold before nominal CMG control is resumed. http://bit.ly/2vXlC8V

Expedition 54 Trio Undocks from Station, Begins Ride Home

Expedition 53-54 Crew Members (from left) Joe Acaba, Alexander Misurkin and Mark Vande Hei are pictured in front of the Soyuz MS-06 spacecraft before their launch on Sept. 13, 2017.

NASA astronauts Mark Vande Hei and Joe Acaba and Commander Alexander Misurkin of Roscosmos undocked from the International Space Station at 6:08 p.m. EST to begin their voyage home to Earth.

The deborbit burn is targeted for 8:38 p.m., and will lead to a landing at 9:31 p.m. NASA Television coverage of deorbit and landing begins at 8 p.m. Watch their return to Earth online at: www.nasa.gov/live

Their time on station marked the beginning of the first long-term increase in crew size on the U.S. segment from three people to four, enabling NASA to double the time dedicated to research and achieve a record-setting week of research that surpassed 100 hours. Highlights from this research include investigations into the manufacturing of fiber optic filaments in microgravity, improving the accuracy of an implantable glucoses biosensor, and measuring the Sun's energy input to Earth.

This mission was the first spaceflight for Vande Hei, the second for Misurkin, and the third for Acaba. Their cumulative time in space, respectively, is 168 days, 334 days, and 306 days.

With the undocking, Expedition 55 has now begun aboard the station with Anton Shkaplerov of Roscosmos as the Commander and Flight Engineers Scott Tingle of NASA, and Norishige Kanai of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. Three additional crew members arrive on March 23. Ricky Arnold and Drew Feustel of NASA and Oleg Artemyev of Roscosmos will launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on March 21 for a two-day journey to join Expedition 55 on station.

ЦУП. ТПК «СОЮЗ МС-06» ОТСТЫКОВАЛСЯ ОТ МКС
28.02.2018 02:12

Транспортный пилотируемый корабль (ТПК) «Союз МС-06» с экипажем на борту 28 февраля 2018 года в 02:08 мск успешно отстыковался от Международной космической станции (МКС).

На борту корабля участники 53-й и 54-й длительных экспедиций на МКС – космонавт РОСКОСМОСА Александр МИСУРКИН, астронавты NASA Марк ВАНДЕ ХАЙ и Джозеф АКАБА.

ТПК «Союз МС-06» находился в составе МКС с 13 сентября 2017 года. За время пребывания на Международной космической станции экипаж выполнил программу научно-прикладных исследований и экспериментов, поддерживал работоспособность МКС и проводил работы по её дооснащению оборудованием, доставленным грузовыми кораблями. Александр МИСУРКИН совершил выход в открытое космическое пространство.

В соответствии с расчётами службы баллистико-навигационного обеспечения Центра управления полётами (ЦУП) спускаемый аппарат ТПК «Союз МС-06» должен совершить посадку в 05:31 мск на территории Казахстана.
