Soyuz MS-11 Docking International Space Station first manned mission after the October accident blasted off from the Baikonur space center to the International Space Station (ISS), RIA Novosti informs. 

The Soyuz MS-11 docked the International Space Station after the spacecraft successfully separated from the Soyuz-FG rocket earlier in the day. 

Cosmonaut of Roscosmos Oleg Kononenko, astronauts of NASA and the Canadian space agency Ann McClain and David Saint-Jacques make up the mission that is planned to last for 194 days. On October 11, a rocket carrying Russian cosmonaut Alexei Ovchinin and NASA astronaut Nick Hague malfunctioned about two minutes after the liftoff, sending their escape capsule into a steep fall back to Earth.
