Biography
Prior to selection as a cosmonaut, Chub obtained a degree in management and informatics from the South-Russian State Technical University (Novocherkassk Polytechnic Institute) in 2006 as the top member of his class.[1] He subsequently obtained a graduate degree in economics from the same institution.
Prior to his selection as a cosmonaut, Chub directed the astronautics firm Space Tu, LLC. He was selected as a cosmonaut candidate in 2012 and was named a test cosmonaut on June 16, 2014.
In 2019 Chub participated to the training ESA CAVES,[2][3] organized by the European Space Agency, held between Italy and Slovenia.
Chub trained as a backup crewmember for the Soyuz MS-12 flight to the International Space Station, and in accordance with his Roscosmos biography, had been selected as a crewmember for the Soyuz MS-17 mission, but was subsequently replaced by American astronaut Kathleen Rubins.[4]
Chub was again assigned as a backup crewmember for Soyuz MS-22 and is now expected to fly on MS-23 in 2023.[5]
