Main crew of ISS-66 is preparing for work in orbit

Typical Flight Days – so called the final training before passing the integrated exams, in which the crews of the nearest expedition to the international space station are involved. Their task is to spend a working day on the simulator of the Russian segment of the station, performing various tasks. Duplicate crew of the ISS-66 (Cosmonaut Roscosmos Oleg Artemyev, the participants of the space flight Alena Mordovin and Alexey Dudin) have already passed similar tests. The turn of the main crew.

The first to the training session began an astronaut Roscosmos Anton Sluffers. For him, the standard flight days began in the morning. The crew commander performed tasks, following a clear cyclogram prescribed by instructors. In addition to the planned work on the station maintenance and the provision of vital activity, it was expected by a number of abnormal situations with which the cosmonaut successfully coped. In the afternoon, the Sospace Spaneco and Julia Peresilde and Julia Peresilde joined their commander. During the period of space flight, they will have to implement a unique scientific and educational project – the first in the world in the orbit shooting of the episodes of the art film under the work name “Call”. The process promises to become very tense and labor cost.

According to the director-director of the film Klim Shipenko, the “earth” film crew usually lasts 12 hours, the total number of different specialists who are used in it – 50-70 people. In space it is impossible, resources are simply incompatible. What dozens of people do will have to be performed by the director and actress, of course, with the participation of astronauts. The MKS-66 crew commander of the ISS-66 crew will be brought to work on the film and is now on orbit, Oleg Novitsky.

Space Expedition of the Calling Group “Call” will be short. Working time crews that will be at the station is scheduled for a minute. Therefore, it is very important that the actions of cosmonauts and flight participants be well coordinated and worked in advance on earthly conditions. Typical Flight Days help the film to get used to the setting on the ISS, feel its dimensions, learn to serve themselves in everyday life and act according to a single algorithm. For Klim Shipenko and Yulia, Peredild prepared a number of tasks related to photo and video filming, as well as with the search and use of equipment in different modules. This allows you to even better explore the station device and take off to shoot in conditions approximate to real. An important part of the standard flight day was the study of the equipment used in an emergency to the ISS.

On September 8, 2021, the main and duplicating crews of the ISS-66 will begin comprehensive exam training, after which it will continue to prepare already on Baikonur. The start of the piloted ship “Soyuz MS-19” with the set of the “Challenge” project is scheduled for October 5, 2021.
