Crew relocates Soyuz MS-13 to Poisk module
Expedition 60 crew members Alexander Skvortsov of Roscosmos, Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency (ESA) and Drew Morgan of NASA relocated their Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft from the Zvezda service module where they docked on July 20 to the Poisk Mini-Research Module 2 (MRM 2) on Sunday (Aug. 25).
The spacecraft separated from Zvezda at 11:35 p.m. EDT (0335 GMT) and docked to Poisk under manual control at 11:59 p.m. (0359 GMT).
The relocation was performed to allow the uncrewed Soyuz MS-14 spacecraft to attempt a docking with Zvezda on Monday (Aug. 26), after it failed to dock with the Poisk module on Saturday. The initial attempt was aborted after what Russian flight controllers said was a suspected problem with a component associated with the Kurs automated rendezvous system for the Poisk module docking port.
The suspect amplifier unit was not a factor for the manual relocation by Skvortsov and his Soyuz MS-13 crewmates.

Soyuz MS-13 undocks from space station
Cosmonaut Alexander Skvortsov of Roscosmos, Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA astronaut Christina Koch departed the International Space Station to return to Earth on Thursday (Feb. 6), undocking their Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft from the Poisk mini-research module at 12:50 a.m. EST (0550 GMT).
A deorbit burn at 3:18 a.m. EST (0818 GMT) will set up a landing near the town of Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan at 4:12 a.m. EST (0912 GMT or 3:12 p.m. local time).

Astronaut Christina Koch lands on Earth after record-setting space station mission
Christina Koch did not set out to break records on her first spaceflight, but with her return to Earth after nearly a year in orbit, her mission is now one for the history books.
Koch, a NASA astronaut, landed on the snow-covered steppe of Kazakhstan on Thursday (Feb. 6) with two of her International Space Station (ISS) crewmates, Expedition 61 commander Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency (ESA) and cosmonaut Alexander Skvortsov of the Russian space agency Roscosmos.
Descending under a parachute and further slowed by braking thrusters, the three touched down aboard Russia's Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft southeast of the Kazakh town of Dzhezkazgan at 4:12 a.m. EST (0912 GMT or 3:12 p.m. local time).
