Today, Russian space agency Roscosmos announced that they have postponed the launch of the new Cosmonaut-1 cargo ship to the International Space Station (ISS) due to technical issues. The ship was scheduled to launch in April, but now Roscosmos has pushed the launch back to July. This delay means that the supplies and maintenance needed to keep the ISS operational will be delayed.

The Cosmonaut-1 cargo ship is a crucial part of Russia’s space exploration program and will be used to transport supplies and maintenance equipment to the ISS. The new launch date of July will give the Russian space agency time to make repairs and ensure the safety of the mission. This delay will also give the ISS crew time to prepare for the mission, and make sure that all necessary supplies and maintenance are in place before the ship launches.
