farewell ceremony of the main and backup crews short and uncomplicated. The traditional photo session against the stele depicting Vladimir Lenin and a five-minute press conference for journalists. Most of the crew, and will deliver to the ISS the Olympic torch, the three astronauts: Japanese Koichi Wakata, the American Richard Mastracchio and Russian commander Mikhail Tyurin. By the way, he was holding a symbol of upcoming games – uchuvstvovat in the Olympic torch relay in native Kolomna. Maybe that’s why his comments about the great event sounds so humdrum.
Farewell, farewell short – and on buses. The astronauts are sent to the Chkalovsky airfield near Moscow, and from there on two planes at Baikonur, which will host the final preparations. Torch crew a few days ago from a person who was the first in history came out in open space, Aleksey Leonov. However, the symbol Games in Sochi will fly to the space center separately from the crew at the beginning of November.
Torch into orbit crew Mikhail Tyurin will deliver on November 7 at the Soyuz TMA-11, which, by the way, was decorated with symbols of the upcoming games – wrapped up the Olympic quilt. On board the ISS will take its own relay: no fire will carry the torch in all segments of the station, and two days later the cosmonauts Oleg Kotov and Sergey Ryazan, which are already on the ISS, will take with him into space. Return to earth the torch on November 11 with a crew of Fyodor Yurchikhin.
