MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 12th October, 2018) The crew of the Soyuz spacecraft experienced the gravitational pull of almost 7 G's during the emergency landing in Kazakhstan following a failed launch on Thursday, executive director of the Russian Space Agency Sergey Krikalev told Sputnik.
Earlier in the day, an accident occurred during the liftoff of a Soyuz-FG launch vehicle carrying the Soyuz MS-10 spacecraft with two new members of the International Space Station (ISS) crew on board - Russian cosmonaut Alexey Ovchinin and NASA astronaut Nick Hague.
The crew has safely returned to Earth in a jettisoned escape capsule.
"The crew landed without major problems. On the descent, Ovchinin recorded the G-force of 6.7 G's," Krikalev said.
Krikalev added that Ovchinin and Hague will most certainly fly to the ISS again as soon as possible.
"Obviously, it will not be the next flight, but we will try to do it as quickly as possible, in order to make the most effective use of their skills now, while they are still fresh," he stressed.
