Marina Vasilevskaya took one kilogram of personal belongings with her on the flight. There was a flag, a child's photo. But what else did the cosmonaut take with her?

Marina Vasilevskaya, cosmonaut, Hero of Belarus:

“Of course, I took photos of my family and friends, some of my notes, I took the Gospel, because, of course, I am a believer and I know that only with God's help everything will be fine, and especially we were a little closer to God there, as the President said.

"I took our stork in national dress. I took a lot of videos and photos together with this stork as a personification of friendship, love, joy. I took a copy of the passport that I also photographed against the Earth as I promised. I put the ISS stamp with our date of arrival. So, in principle, I fulfilled what I promised," shared Marina Vasilevskaya.
