Soyuz TMA-15 was a crewed spaceflight to the International Space Station . Part of the Soyuz programme , it transported three members of the Expedition 20 crew to the space station. TMA-15 was the 102nd crewed flight of a Soyuz spacecraft, since Soyuz 1 in 1967. The Soyuz spacecraft remained docked to the space station during Expedition 20 and Expedition 21 as an emergency escape vehicle. The mission marked the start of six-person crew operations on the ISS.

Mission highlights [ edit ]

Soyuz TMA-15 was launched successfully by a Soyuz-FG carrier rocket from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan , at 10:34 UTC on 27 May 2009. It docked with the ISS at 12:34 UTC on 29 May 2009.

Roman Romanenko was the third second-generation space traveller. He was reported to have chosen Taymyr ( Russian : Таймыр ) as the mission callsign because it was the callsign on his father's first flight, Soyuz 26 ; ^[1] however, the callsign Parus ( Russian : Парус meaning Sail ) was used for communications with the spacecraft. ^[1] Robert Thirsk became the first Canadian to fly on a Soyuz; all previous Canadians in space had flown aboard Space Shuttles . Frank De Winne became the first European to be in command of the ISS.

The craft and crew returned to earth 1 December 2009.
