Here are the details of this new Russian "Soyuz" with "Fyodor" successfully moored to the International Space Station

Russia's Soyuz MS-14 successfully moored on Tuesday at the International Space Station (ISS), carrying the first human-like robot, Fyodor.

The mooring took place several minutes before the scheduled time. For the moment, the International Space Station was flying over China.

The mooring was overseen by the leaders of the Russian space company Roskosmos, including its chairman, Dmitry Rogozin.

After docking, a pressure equalization between the station and the vessel will be performed and the node will be checked, which will take several hours. Only then will the Russian flight management center allow the terminal crew to open the ship's door.

The Fyodor robot is expected to remain on board the International Space Station until September 6.

The Russian Soyuz MS-14 spacecraft was launched Thursday morning from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, becoming the first unmanned spacecraft in the last 30 years. The only "man of space" on board is the robot "Fyodor".

The ship was due to dock with the Boisek unit of the International Space Station on August 24, but the berthing operation failed due to a malfunction of the CORS convergence system, which led to forced the crew to command a safe distance from the station. The second attempt at berthing took place this morning.
