Sergey Krikalev, Executive Director of Roscosmos for manned Space Programs, said that Russian cosmonauts have begun familiarizing themselves with operations with the Crew Dragon spacecraft of Elon Musk's SpaceX company. This is reported by TASS .

Nevertheless, Krikalev noted that they do not interact with the ship itself yet. He stressed that the training plan for Crew Dragon will be further clarified. So, according to him, it is necessary to get acquainted and train with all individual protective equipment, including spacesuits and lodgements, as well as training in emergency procedures in case of emergencies.

Earlier, Krikalev said that the cross-flights of Russian cosmonauts on US Crew Dragon ships and American astronauts on Soyuz will begin no earlier than the autumn of 2022.

Prior to that, it became known that Roscosmos and NASA will discuss the issue of cross-flights of their cosmonauts and astronauts on the Crew Dragon and Soyuz MS spacecraft. This was announced by the head of the state corporation Dmitry Rogozin. "From our point of view, SpaceX has gained enough experience to be able to send representatives of our crews on their ships," he said.
