Data on the temporal changes in soil properties at the emergency crash site of the launch vehicle 'Soyuz-FG' in Kazakhstan.

On October 11, 2018, in the Ulytau region of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Soyuz-FG launch vehicle carrying a crewed MS-10 spacecraft failed, creating two areas where rocket propellants spilled and soil condition was monitored in 2018, 2019, 2022 and 2023. This article presents data on the content of pollutants, namely unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) and total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), total N, organic carbon, exchangeable Ca and Mg, water-soluble NO-, NO-, HCO-, CO , SO , Cl, , Na, pH values, cation exchange capacity and electrical conductivity of the water extract in disturbed and background Aridisols (more than 200 samples in total). This data set contains information on interseasonal (autumn 2022 and spring 2023) differences in the content and vertical differentiation of some soil properties in Aridisols in Central Kazakhstan.

Review on the environmental impact of emissions from space launches: a case study for areas affected by the Russian space programme.

In this paper, we summarised the main field-based approaches and a large volume of data on the territories affected by the Russian space programme conducted at Plesetsk, Baikonur, and Vostochny cosmodromes. Influence of space transportation on the ozone layer depletion, as well as on environmental and human health, is negligible. The environmental consequences of rocket and space activities within launch pads and the terrestrial drop zones of jettisoned first stages of launch vehicles are allowable.

Protocol of conjugate evaluation of the biological activity of soils in terms of cellulolytic activity and biological consumption of oxygen.

The article presents protocols for determining the biological activity of kerosene-contaminated soils in terms of two indicators, i.e. cellulolytic activity and biological consumption of oxygen.
