Undocking scheduled for (UTC) 2023-09-27 07:55 Landing scheduled for (UTC) 2023-09-27 11:17 Vehicle Soyuz MS-23 Landing site Kazakh Steppe, Kazakhstan Commander Sergey Prokopyev 🇷🇺 Flight Engineer 1 Dmitry Petelin 🇷🇺 Flight Engineer 2 Francisco Rubio 🇺🇸 Mission success criteria Safe return of crew and cargo to Earth The crew of MS-23 actually launched on MS-22, but did not return on the vehicle as it was deemed unsafe following the cooling loop incident, so MS-23 was launched uncrewed as a replacement. The delay in return has resulted in Francisco Rubio becoming the first American to spend a full year or more in space, breaking Mark T. Vande Hei’s record for the longest spaceflight by an American astronaut.
