The Moscow Metro's 90th anniversary logo was emblazoned on the Soyuz-2.1a launch vehicle, which launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. The Progress MS-32 transport spacecraft has already successfully docked with the International Space Station (ISS).
"In honor of the Moscow Metro's 90th anniversary, the anniversary logo appeared on a Roscosmos rocket for the first time in history. This unification of two industries—transport and space—symbolizes forward movement, technological advancement, and respect for the country's historical heritage," noted the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.
The flight proceeded as planned and was part of the station's regular resupply program, providing it with fuel for refueling, drinking water, fresh food, and Orlan spacesuits for the cosmonauts' spacewalks. The Progress MS series spacecraft are also used for waste disposal and orbital correction.
For the first time in history, Moscow's transport symbols were presented in space, marking a unique event. The collaboration between Moscow Transport and Roscosmos underscores the importance of developing high-tech industries and their contribution to the lives of city residents.
The Progress MS series of spacecraft has been in use since 2015. They have completed over 20 successful flights. In October, a themed train dedicated to Roscosmos will begin operating on the Moscow Metro.
