Russian officials are investigating the cause of a booster problem that forced a Soyuz rocket capsule to make an emergency landing just after launch. The two crew members, Russian cosmonaut Alexey Ovchinin and American astronaut Nick Hague, are in good health. They were heading for a six-month mission on the International Space Station when their flight was aborted. Their capsule separated and landed 400km from the launch site.
