46, COPY.
>>> WE FEEL ROTATION.
IT IS 272 AND GOING
DOWN.
COPY.
TIGHT N THE STRAP.
>> HEARING THERE, THERE
HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH
THE BOOSTER, AND WE ARE
STANDING BY WITH
INFORMATION AS WE
CONTINUE TO GET IT FROM
THE RUSSIAN CRIMINAL
TEAM.
EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE
FEEN WITH THE CREW.
WE HAD GOOD COME WITH
THEM AND THEY ARE OKAY.
WAITING FOR MORE
INFORMATION.
>> THE TEAM IS WORKING
WITH THEIR COUNTERPARTS
IN RUSSIA, GET IS
INFORMATION ON THE
BOOSTER THAT HAS CHANGED
THE LAUNCH PLAN.
WE ARE GETTING MORE
INFORMATION THAT WE WILL
PROVIDE AS SOON AS WE
HAVE A LITTLE MORE.
WORKING ON IT IS FLIGHT
DIRECTOR MARRY LAWRENCE.

>> THE LAUNCH DID
HAVE A PROBLEM WITH
THE BOOSTER A FEW
SECONDS AFTER THE
FIRST STAGE
SEPARATION.
WE CAN CONFIRM NOW
THAT THE CREW HAS
STARTED TO GO INTO
THE BALLISTIC
DESCENT MODE.
THERE WILL BE GOING
IN ON A SHARP
LANDING TODAY.
I THINK IT WILL BE
COMING UP FAIRLY
SHORTLY, AND WE ARE
CONTINUING TO GET
MORE INFORMATION
FROM OUR COUNTER
PARTS AS THE
ROSCOSMOS SPACE
AGENCY AS WE LEARN
MORE ABOUT TODAY'S
ACTIVITIES AND WHAT
TO EXPECT NEXT AS
THE CREW DOES GO
THROUGH THIS
BALLISTIC DESCENT
MODE.

RESCUE FORCES THAT
TOOK OFF FROM
BAIKONUR EXPECTED TO
REACH THE AREA WHERE
THE SOYUZ MS-10
DESCENDED ABOUT HOUR
AND A HALF LATER.
SO, WE ARE ABOUT 30
MINUTES INTO THAT
FLIGHT.
WE ARE HEARING
ALREADY THE FORCES
ARE IN CONTACT WITH
NICK HAGUE AND
ALEXEY OVCHININ ON
BOARD THE SOYUZ, AND
INITIAL REPORTS ARE
THEY ARE IN GOOD
CONDITION.
WE WILL STAND BY FOR
MORE.
BUT, AGAIN, EXPECTED
TO TAKE ABOUT AN
HOUR AND A HALF,
EAST OF JESS SICK
STAND, FOLLOWING THE
BALLISTIC LANDING
THAT TOOK PLACE
AFTER TODAY'S
3:48:00 A.M.
MISSILE'S LAUNCH.
>>> THE SOYUZ
LANDING IS COMING IN
MORE AT A STEEPER
ANGLE THAT IT WOULD
NORMALLY COME IN.
WHICH MEANS IT IS
SUBJECT TO HIGHER G
FORCES, BUT IT IS A
KNOWN MODE OF
DESCENT THAT CREW
MEMBERS HAVE GONE
THROUGH BEFORE.
>>> THAT TOOK PLACE
FOLLOWING TODAY'S
3:40:00 A.M. CENTRAL
TIME LAUNCH OF THE
SOYUZ MS-10, AND THE
CREW ON BOARD, NICK
HAGUE AND ALEXEY
OVCHININ HAVE BEEN
IN CONTACT WITH THE
RESCUE FORCES WHICH
ARE ON THEIR WAY TO
THE RESCUE SIGHT.

PROBABLY ABOUT AN
