Sebuah roket pengangkut Soyuz-2.1a diluncurkan dari Baikonur Cosmodrome di Kazakhstan pada Kamis (27/11), mengirim wahana antariksa Soyuz MS-28 dengan dua kosmonaut Rusia dan satu astronaut Amerika Serikat (AS) ke orbit dekat Bumi.

The International Space Station (ISS) orbits the Earth at a consistent altitude and speed, moving along a predetermined path.

However, it’s the Earth that’s rotating within this fixed orbital path, not the ISS moving over a stationary Earth. Vid
