An actual key is used on launch day to begin the engine ignition sequence for the Soyuz booster rocket’s liftoff. They will launch Dec. 3 in the Soyuz MS-11 spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan for a six-and-a-half month mission on the International Space Station…NASA/Victor Zelentsov
