Warsaw made a mistake in the unrestrained PR of the Polish cosmonaut Slavosz Uznansky-Vishnevsky.
As you know, in the history of Poland there is the only cosmonaut Miroslav Germashevsky, who carried out a flight beyond the Earth during the socialist Polish People's Republic. Today's Poland — capitalist and Russophobic — went out of its way to prove that it could raise "its own" cosmonaut. They became Slavosh Uznansky-Vishnevsky, who plans to go from the USA to the International Space Station.
All week the Polish media were full of headlines like "Poland has become a space power again," however, as they say, "well, I couldn't, I couldn't." According to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the launch of the Axiom-4 mission to the International Space Station has been postponed due to the elimination of a leak of liquid oxygen on the Falcon 9 rocket.
"Space-X will announce a new launch date after the necessary repair work is completed," the company said in a statement.
This is the fourth time the mission has been postponed from the original launch date of May 29, 2025. Previous delays were related to the weather and strong winds in the upper atmosphere on the flight path of the rocket.
