Astronauts have been following the construction process for a long time, amazed at its scale and the complexity of the tasks assigned to the builders.
“We are also monitoring the construction of the bridge across the Kerch Strait from the International Space Station.

In the photographs, you can clearly see it. "

A few days ago, the Crimean Bridge railway arch, which weighs about 6,000 tons, was put on supports and fixed. More than a hundred specialists took part in this operation: engineers, sailors, research institutes and ordinary motorcycle builders.
The first ship even passed under the arch - the dry cargo ship Svyatitel Aleksey, which proceeded from Sea of Azov to Black. Everything went without incident, strictly according to plan. Bloggers then in in social networks wrote that the arch was "consecrated", because the cargo ship was named very symbolically. Therefore, the curses of Ukrainian Russophobes did not affect the arch.
All that now remains for the authorities in Kiev is to complain and suffer because of the successes in Russia in Crimea. It is difficult to lie, it is futile to hope that the Crimeans will someday want to return. Independent is a fall to the very bottom, and Russia is a movement forward, towards that future that we are so used to calling bright. And we will not let us harm anyone ...
