Roscosmos Corporation announced the successful return to Earth of the Soyuz MS-14 spacecraft. This return is causing increased attention (at least from the media and experts) due to the fact that the Fedor robot returned in the Soyuz capsule.
It's about anthropomorphic robot Skybot F-850. Landing of the descent vehicle took place at about half past midnight (Moscow time).
The "Roskosmos" reports that all operations related to the removal of the ship from orbit, as well as its subsequent landing, were completed normally.
Soyuz MS-14 has been in the format of docking with the ISS since August 27. The direct operational work with the space robot began on August 29. During this time, Russian cosmonauts Alexander Skvortsov and Alexey Ovchinin tested various Fedor systems. Earlier it was reported that the space robot on the ISS will be tested, including in extreme conditions.
As a result, the robot worked in test mode: it worked with a screwdriver, wrench, and was involved in the integration of electrical connectors.
It is also noteworthy that the Soyuz MS-14 spacecraft was operated with a digital descent control system based on the angular velocity integration unit (BIUS). They refused to use an analog system.
