Soyuz MS-15 was a Soyuz spaceflight launched on 25 September 2019,[1] transporting two members of the Expedition 61 crew and a short duration visiting crew member to the International Space Station. Soyuz MS-15 was the 143rd flight of a Soyuz spacecraft with a crew. It was the last flight of Soyuz-FG launcher before its replacement by the Soyuz-2 in the crewed spaceflight role. The crew consisted of a Russian commander, an American flight engineer, and the first Emirati astronaut.[3] To celebrate this event, pictures of the Soyuz launcher and of Hazza Al Mansouri were projected on Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world.[4]
