Russian cosmonauts Oleg Artemyev and Denis Matveev decided not to discard the dismantled ring from the ERA manipulator from the ISS, which could interfere with the launch of the American NASA spacecraft. This was announced by Dmitry Akhmerov, a leading engineer of the Department of extravehicular activity of the Rocket and Space Corporation (RSC) Energia.

The operation to dismantle the launch ring was successful, Akhmerov said during the Roscosmos broadcast. According to him, the astronauts managed to complete the main tasks and leave the module without incident. Experts decided to postpone the discarding of the dismantled ring, so as not to interfere with the departure of the NASA spacecraft. They stayed in outer space for more than six hours.

The next attempt to launch the Space Launch System carrier rocket with the Orion spacecraft took place on September 3 as part of an unmanned flight to the Moon. Initially, the launch was scheduled for August 29, but it had to be postponed for technical reasons.
