Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaBaikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan
April 8, 2025, 5:47 a.m.
Status: Go for Launch
Mission:
Soyuz MS-27 will carry two cosmonauts and one astronaut to the International Space Station aboard the Soyuz spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The crew consists of Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov, Alexey Zubritsky, and NASA astronaut Jonathan "Jonny" Kim.
Low Earth Orbit
Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat-M | Ionosfera-M 3 & 4
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaVostochny Cosmodrome, Siberia, Russian Federation
TBD June, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Ionosfera is a constellation of four ionospheric and magnetospheric research satellites developed by for Roscosmos for the project Ionozond. The satellites will operate on circular sun-synchronous orbits (SSO), at altitude of about 800 km and located in two orbital planes of two satellites each. The following science instruments are carried on the satellites: * SPER/1 Plasma and energy radiation spectrometer * SG/1 Gamma-ray spectrometer * GALS/1 Galactic cosmic ray spectrometer / 1 * LAERTES On-board Ionosonde * NBK/2 Low-frequency wave complex * ESEP Ionospheric plasma energy spectrometer * Ozonometer-TM Ozonometer * MayaK On-board radio transmitters * PES GPS-GLONASS device
Sun-Synchronous OrbitSoyuz 2.1a | Progress MS-31 (92P)

TBD July, 2025
Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat-M | AIST-2T 01 & 02
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaVostochny Cosmodrome, Siberia, Russian Federation
TBD July, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
A pair of Russian optical Earth observation satellites built by the Progress Rocket Space Centre for obtaining stereo images of the Earth's surface, with maximum resolution of 1.2 m in panchromatic mode and a swath width of 32 km.
Sun-Synchronous OrbitSoyuz 2.1a | Bion-M No. 2
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaBaikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan
TBD July, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Bion-M is the next generation of Russian biological research satellites. While retaining the Vostok/Zenit-derived reentry module of the earlier Bion, the propulsion module has been replace by a Yantar type module, which provides maneuvering capabilities and longer mission support. The mission duration has been increased to up to 6 months by using solar cells for energy generation. The weight of scientific equipment has been increased by 100 kilograms.
Low Earth OrbitSoyuz 2.1a | Progress MS-32 (93P)
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaBaikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan
TBD September, 2025
Soyuz 2.1a | Obzor-R No.1
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaPlesetsk Cosmodrome, Russian Federation
TBD September, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
The Russian Obzor-R satellite is a planned X-band radar earth observation satellite designed by TsSKB-Progress. In 2012, the development of the Arkon-2M radar satellite was stopped and instead the development of the Obzor-R was initiated. The satellite features the BRLK X-band Synthetic Aperture Radar as the imaging instrument with a ground resolution of 500 m.
Sun-Synchronous OrbitSoyuz 2.1a | Soyuz MS-28
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaBaikonur Cosmodrome, Republic of Kazakhstan
TBD November, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Soyuz MS-28 will carry three cosmonauts and one astronaut to the International Space Station aboard the Soyuz spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The crew consists of Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergei Kud-Sverchkov, Sergei Mikayev and Oleg Platonov.

TBD December, 2025
Soyuz 2.1b/Fregat | Glonass-K1 No. 19
Progress Rocket Space Center | RussiaPlesetsk Cosmodrome, Russian Federation
TBD December, 2025
Status: To Be Determined
Mission:
Glonass-K are the third generation of satellite design for GLONASS satellite navigation system. GLONASS is a Russian space-based navigation system comparable to the similar GPS and Galileo systems. This generation improves on accuracy, power consumption and design life. Each satellite is unpressurized and weighs 935 kg, and has an operational lifetime of 10 years.
