Why did they return the dust filter from the Soyuz to Earth?

68
The cosmonauts who returned from the ISS to Earth brought with them a dust filter of the Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft, in which a hole was previously discovered, reports RIA News communication of its source in the rocket and space industry.





As the source said, the greatest interest among the returned goods is the position №111 - “this is a dust filter and smear samples from the hole and around it”.

According to him, experts will try to find traces of aluminum among the dust, from which the on-board compartment is made. If such traces are found, it will mean that the hole was drilled “in conditions of orbital flight.”

Earlier it was reported that the Russian cosmonauts on the ISS were instructed to collect and package all possible evidence related to the hole found in the casing, including glue samples, which were used when applying a piece of cloth to the holes, as well as (if lucky) particles of chips left after drilling.

In addition, in a week, the astronauts will go into outer space to open the anti-meteorite protection and inspect the hole from the outside.

The Soyuz MC-09 spacecraft as part of the ISS will remain until December. When the crew returns, the household compartment is shot off and burned in the atmosphere. The cosmonauts themselves are landing in a descent capsule. The dust filter on the ground returned the crew of the Union MS-08.

Recall that the hole in the hull of the MS-09 spacecraft docked on June 8 was discovered by astronauts on August 30.

      We’ll drill everything that the Americans can drill and fly away from this ISS forever. We need to have our own station. And do not give dachas all over Russia. And it seems that our management just does what it’s resting. By the way about the cottages. I don’t think that the construction and maintenance in hard-to-reach summer cottages cost taxpayers more expensive than a space station bully

          I think such collisions are spelled out in the contract for the construction and operation of the ISS. In case of refusal to fulfill the clauses of the contracts, the reputation of the space agency as a reliable partner suffers. Considering that the Americans are going to build a lunar station with international participation, it is not in their interests to throw Roscosmos, otherwise the other partners may understand that they can also be thrown. It is also worth not forgetting that the ISS is going to operate for at least another 5 years. To quarrel with Russia over the ISS means to endanger the very existence of the station, which means, at least, questions from American taxpayers will arise: "Why did our money stop working?" And they don't joke with such things in America.

        Can. But most of the electricity comes from the US segment. You can disconnect and make your own station. National. But before that, it would be necessary to develop a new energy module, a new farm for solar batteries, the science of launching its own manipulator. And yes, be prepared for sharply increased maintenance costs, because NASA is paying most of them now. And now we are looking at the budget of POSCOSMOS and we understand that it really is not possible. The federal space program was cut to the brink. It is impossible to find additional funds for development, launch and maintenance.

      If you pay attention, the competent designation of the expedition goes through the fraction example 56/57 It was the 56th, now the Union has taken away three, and new ones will arrive in their place, and May 57 will begin. Then, after 3 months, the "trinity" of the 56th (which are now left) will land, and a new one will arrive on May 58. Therefore, those who fly now will be the 57/58 expedition.
      Fly for six months (on average), crew changes once a quarter (approximately plus or minus), only 4 manned launches per year.

          They were not able to squeeze out more of themselves on the merits of the main topic, but in vain, your question was extremely primitive, so I advise you to broaden your horizons, and not insult people about inappropriate woman that you are not personally familiar with. And to ask a question and then "bark" at those who have decided to answer you sincerely is a sign of bad manners.
          In a particular case with May 57 - I agree, it turned out overhanging.
          Since school (for 20 years already) I have been typing exclusively "blindly" with my ten fingers, and I can't imagine how you can be perverted by poking two fingers into the keyboard.
          Regarding the "quality of the text" - to blame, there are side effects:
          1-if I get drunk, then instead of the tongue my fingers are braided (but I rarely get drunk).
          2-sometimes it turns out complete nonsense when the hands with the offset were mistakenly folded to the wrong start buttons.
          3-this is already a well-established reflex that when you think hard, your hands like that all automatically print at the same time as a thought, and then, especially when you are in a hurry, you really don't check.
          Do not think that I am justifying you for my text and manner of communication, I have once again shown you that you judge people and give them an assessment without knowing them and, as a result, are deeply mistaken.

            Actually, I'm used to speaking Russian because of our relationship, this time. The expression "inadequacy" is used even in diplomacy. So there is no question of any insult. And the author of the article, not me, wrote about the "wench" and her behavior in orbit. And God forbid me from such acquaintances. And the last, judging by the latest publications in the press, appearances on TV channels and in international organizations, Western leaders have generally gone wild and stupid with their impunity, but remember one Russian truth, how long the rope doesn’t twist, but the end will be. So it's not for you to teach me good manners. Than gossips, to count, to work, it is not better for themselves, the godfather turns. Read Russian classic writers, you will be smarter.

              Maybe not me, but someone will still have to ...

              And the author of the article, not me, wrote about the "woman" and her behavior in orbit.


              Do you know how "suggestion" differs from "persuasion"?
              Suggestion-acceptance of any of the points of view, not based on personal experience.
              Persuasion is the acceptance of any point of view based on personal experience.

              On the basis of a dubious interpretation of a certain "author", you make a conclusion and accept it as the ultimate truth.
              But what about your own independent opinion, based at least on familiarization with more reliable primary sources of information, or will you always just "assent"?
              I do not know, read at your leisure at least the magazine "News of Cosmonautics"
              If you are already referring to the "inadequacy" of Serena Aunyon, then at least tell us that she freaked out because the American toilet on the ISS broke down, that the Russians were not allowed to defile her ACS because of the sanctions, that she fought in hysterics with a request to lower her to land and send additional Union for it, cried and said that diapers smell bad, and then drilled a hole, only made a mistake and drilled Union instead of her own head.
              wrote the author of the article

              Or is the author like you not even in the subject?

              Actually, I'm used to talking in Russian

              I have already understood that the theme of the Russian world is sacred for you, and the Russian world is "our everything."
              Listen, even in Russia itself, only 80% consider themselves Russian, and this is with our 150 ml. the population is only 120 million !, and where did you divide the remaining 6 billion, 880 million people?
              If you do not consider them, in principle, for people with whom there is nothing to talk about, then this is mutual, just do not answer or comment on my messages anymore (if there is enough willpower).
              If you have so strongly limited your perception of the "Russian world" with blinkers outside of which there is nothing else, then it is boring and not interesting with you ...

    But for me, this is a marriage on the ground during the assembly of the module. Someone got screwed up, then fixed it with glue and hushed it up in place, relying on our AVOS. Now rubber is being pulled a hundred to come up with excuses and not to lose the trust of the "partners". As far as I remember, the American commander of the spacecraft first discovered the leak and then called the Russian cosmonauts. Besides: "... Later, a source in Roskosmos told RIA Novosti that the Special Internal Commission found that the International Space Station did not have such a long drill to make a hole found in the Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft.

    According to the report, after a ground-based full-scale experiment, experts found that "potentially, in conditions of orbital flight, it is possible to drill a hole in the place where it was found, but given its location, this will require a drill about half a meter long
    "The source certainly does not inspire confidence: the Unian agency.

    That I don't read the comments, the short memory (or youth / incompetence) of some supposedly patriotic commentators is always surprising. After all, thanks to American orders, Khrunichev survived in the dashing 90s and created Zarya. And that is why Russia was able to become one of the main partners-participants of the ISS program. And that is precisely why manned astronautics and the associated infrastructure and production did not rest in Bose. And if you remember - there were such talks: about the unprofitability of space, about unmanned projects, and the concentration of efforts on "commercial interests" and so on ... So, if the Americans had not shown interest then, all manned astronautics would have been launched with hammer!

      Fair. Well, in general, not touching on the current story, only within the framework of the time - interest and benefit were double-edged ... Of course, in those years I was still walking under the table, but as an adult I read a lot about the layout of those events.
      In fact, the USSR / RF was the only operator in the world in orbital construction. This is just a fact.
      Scaleb, of course, in those years, was also not "mother's crafts from scotch", but even to the late Salutes (forerunners of the World) they did not quite hold out.

      And when it became clear that planet Earth needed to have dangling people in orbit - without the experience of the Russian Federation, the price would have flown away simply into space of the whole undertaking. For you would have to pay for the mistakes with blood.
      The United States, for its part, shared the experience of the Shuttles. And money. And the Russian Federation does not even take into account the fact that there is "no money" - without the United States, a purely physically more advanced station would have much lower chances to build ...

      Without shuttles, you won’t be able to launch all the necessary modules into space! Yes, it was the Americans who used to drag our segments in their space trucks. So space, the World / ISS are examples of excellent cooperation.

      PS How to solve the issue of the new station is still a pain ... there are no more shuttles, we can say that this is a disaster in our niche, casting aside the economic side of the issue - humanity needs a new space truck ... with this it is much easier to solve a number of issues.
