TL;DR Summary

A Soyuz rocket launch carrying three crew members to the International Space Station was aborted just 20 seconds before liftoff due to unspecified issues, causing a delay in the mission. The crew, including a NASA astronaut and a Roscosmos cosmonaut, will now have to wait for a potential Saturday launch, which would result in a longer transit to the space station. Despite the delay, a NASA cargo supply mission by SpaceX is still scheduled to launch later on Thursday.
