The point is that the headline makes it sound like some altruistic joint mission with Russians and Americans pulling together in some heroic endeavour.
And this when Russia is in the middle of a ruinous war of aggression in Ukraine that pretty much the rest of the world condemns.
It has the effect of being pro Russian propaganda.
Tell it like it is.
Russia launches a capsule since the second one of theirs in a few months has sprung a leak at the ISS.

Bullshit. The Russians are sending up a spare to replace their busted-ass spacecraft.
Bugger-all coming together involved.

The ones who invented the stuff you mean?
It’s kinda how the world works.
Let me add naive to the charge.

That has to be the most cynical thing I’ve heard in ages. Listen to yourself!

Reply to NASA Missions study what may be a 1-In-10,000-Year Gamma-ray Burst, the most powerful class of explosions in the universe. On Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022, a pulse of intense radiation swept through the solar system so exceptional that astronomers quickly dubbed it the BOAT – the brightest of all time. by ICumCoffee
Are we taking levels that would have been dangerous for people in or beyond orbit?
Or do we really only have to worry about radiation from our own star?
