        The governor wasn’t imprisoned here, Korotkov was justified (unfortunately) and now is a citizen of Malta, and Khoroshavin is from Sakhalin! In general, the governor here has to do with the construction of a cosmodrome only because he is the governor of the region, everything controls Moscow!

  During start-up - an emergency shutdown command was passed. That is, problems in the rocket - telemetry is being removed and will be fixed.
  
  In principle - if everything is serious, there will be nothing wrong (well, Roskosmos will lose the contract - for the ISS - Progress is a pleasant addition no more, unfortunately). Although the window will come out quite large - CRS-14 only flies in April, Zingus - even later (there will be a shuttle bus every month there, because the science program is at the end of spring-summer and a new crew, and the current one is packing).

So, according to the new scheme, the flight will not take place already .. no one canceled the laws of ballistics, if everything goes fine according to the four-turn scheme. In October last year, there was a similar situation with the launch being postponed for two days, then the automatic engine shutdown command worked.

        But it could not burn out. It was the case, they launched the Soyuz with the astronauts according to the new shortened two-turn scheme, and already in orbit the MCC decided to fly according to the long scheme. And then there’s the general police department.

And it is naive to wait for the withdrawal from this place from those who drove him there. I read an article about the plight of the leading enterprise in our space industry - GKTs im. Khrunicheva, who is just involved in Protons and the "promising" Hangar. The concern, which unites a large group of enterprises, is actually bankrupt and is held only at the expense of state subsidies. It’s naive to expect a breakthrough from them
