SpaceX bans cosmonaut from mission after alleged security breach

**how ironic the same Ruskies that wouldn't sell the Musk a rocket back when
  • Russian cosmonaut Oleg Artemyev has been removed from the upcoming Crew-12 ISS mission due to alleged photos of rocket engines and classified documents. Andrei Fedyayev will replace him.
  • Artemyev, aged 54, has completed three previous ISS missions, totaling 560 days in space, and is considered a hero of Russia.
  • Russia’s Baikonur Cosmodrome launchpad was partially destroyed during a Soyuz MS-28 launch, leaving Russia temporarily unable to launch crewed missions. Repairs are planned but no timeframe given.

Russia recently lost its ability to launch people into space after its only crewed-mission launch site suffered major damage during a rocket launch.

The launchpad at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan partially collapsed into an exhaust trench during the launch of the Soyuz MS-28 spacecraft on 27 November.

Roscosmos said that the launchpad would be unusable until repairs are made, but did not give a specific timeframe.

“The launch complex’s condition is currently being assessed,” the Russian space agency told state media.

“All necessary backup components are available for restoration, and the damage will be repaired in the near future.”

It is the first time since 1961 that Russia does not have the ability to launch a crewed rocket into space.
