The Large Spacebus 4000 transport container that was originally used to transport the ExoMars 2016 Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) to Baikonur, stands in a cleanroom at the cosmodrome, along with some sea containers that will be brought to the Yubileiny airfield at the cosmodrome to be flown out on three Antonov flights. After the successful launch campaign all remaining supplies and equipment were removed from the cosmodrome and brought back to Europe.
