NASA dixit:

“The unpiloted Russian ISS Progress 66 cargo craft launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on February 22 atop a Soyuz booster on a two-day journey to deliver almost three tons of food, fuel and supplies for the residents of the International Space Station. The vehicle is scheduled to automatically dock to the Pirs Docking Compartment on the Russian segment of the complex on February 24. It was the first launch of a Progress resupply craft to the station since a launch failure last December 1 resulted in the loss of the ISS Progress 65 ship.”

NASA dixit:

“Two days after its launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, the unpiloted Russian ISS Progress 64 cargo ship automatically docked to the Pirs Docking Compartment on the Russian segment of the International Space Station July 18. The new Progress is delivering three tons of food, fuel and supplies to the six crewmembers comprising the Expedition 48 crew. The Progress will remain attached to the station until late January, when it will undock and commanded to deorbit so it can burn up in the Earth’s atmosphere.”

NASA dixit:

“An unpiloted Russian resupply ship automatically docked to the International Space Station April 2, delivering three tons of food, fuel and supplies to the residents of the orbital complex. The ISS Progress 63 cargo vehicle (Roscosmos Progress MS-02) arrived at the aft port of the Zvezda Service Module, completing a two-day journey to the station that began with its launch March 31 on a Soyuz booster from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.”

Progress 61 Undocking

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.”

NASA dixit:

“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.”

NASA dixit:

“Six hours after its launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, the unpiloted ISS Progress 61 cargo craft automatically docked to the International Space Station. After a series of pre-programmed rendezvous burns of its engines, the resupply vehicle linked up to the aft port of the Zvezda Service Module to deliver more than three tons of food, fuel and supplies for the six Expedition 45 crew members on the orbital laboratory. The new Progress will remain attached to Zvezda until early December.”
