Stuck on the ISS?

Moscow immediately suspended all manned space launches pending investigation.
Soyuz capsules are currenlty the only vehicle capable of transporting humans to the ISS and back to Earth. A Soyuz spacecraft, docked at the space station, is set to bring down three of the crew in December: German Alexander Gerst, American Serena Aunon-Chancellor, and Russian Sergey Prokopiev.
