Mission Spacecraft
Soyuz TMA-14M
Soyuz TMA-14M (Soyuz TMA-M 11F732A47 #714) was the spacecraft used for this mission. It is a ROSCOSMOS Capsule designed for Manned and Cargo ISS Logistics, Lifeboat and traveled to International Space Station.
Soyuz TMA-14M was a Soyuz spacecraft which launched on 25 September 2014 20:25 UTC. It transported three members of the Expedition 41 crew to the International Space Station. The crew consisted of Aleksandr Samokutyayev, Yelena Serova, and Barry E. Wilmore. Soyuz is a series of spacecraft designed for the Soviet space programme by the Korolyov Design Bureau (now RKK Energia) in the 1960s that remains in service today. The Soyuz succeeded the Voskhod spacecraft and was originally built as part of the Soviet Manned Lunar programme. The Soyuz spacecraft is launched on a Soyuz rocket, the most frequently used and most reliable launch vehicle in the world to date. The Soyuz rocket design is based on the Vostok launcher, which in turn was based on the 8K74 or R-7A Semyorka, a Soviet intercontinental ballistic missile. All Soyuz spacecraft are launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Up to six months docked to Space station
