NASA dixit:

“The unpiloted Russian ISS Progress 61 cargo ship undocked from the aft port of the Zvezda Service Module of the International Space Station March 30, headed for a reentry into the Earth’s atmosphere and a fiery demise over the Pacific Ocean. The resupply craft arrived at the station last October carrying more than three tons of supplies for the station’s residents. Now loaded with trash, the Progress departed the station for several days of engineering tests by Russian flight controllers before it is deorbited April 8 to burn up in the Earth’s atmosphere. A new Progress will launch to the station from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on March 31.”

“Two days after its launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, the unpiloted Russian ISS Progress 62 cargo ship docked to the Pirs Docking Compartment at the International Space Station Dec. 23. Loaded with 2.8 tons of food, fuel and supplies for the Expedition 46 crew, the Progress reached the complex for an automated linkup following a two-day rendezvous deliberately planned to test upgraded software and telemetry systems. The newest Progress will remain attached to Pirs until early July.”
