Soyuz MS-19

Soyuz MS-19 is a Soyuz spaceflight planned for launch on 5 October 2021. Soyuz MS-19 will be the 147th flight of a crewed Soyuz spacecraft. The crew will consist of a Russian commander, Russian film director Klim Shipenko and Russian actress Yulia Peresild. Shipenko and Peresild are planned to spend about a week on the ISS before returning to Earth aboard Soyuz MS-18, with the intention of filming a movie in space, Vyzov. The flight will launch three crew members of the Expedition 65/66. Without an American astronaut, this launch would mark the first time in more than 21 years that a Soyuz crew only includes Russian cosmonauts and travelers and the ship will have to be upgraded to be piloted by a single person.
