Moscow: Russia has performed 100 successful launches of space aircraft in a row for the first time, Russian state space corporation Roscosmos said on Thursday.

“From October 2018 to the present, 100 consecutive successful launches of Russian space launch vehicles have been carried out. At the same time, 46 launches were made from the Baikonur cosmodrome, 36 from Plesetsk, nine each from the Vostochny cosmodrome and from the Guiana space center,” Roscosmos wrote on Telegram.
