Roscosmos Progress Cargo Spacecraft Departs Space Station
The unpiloted Roscosmos Progress 94 spacecraft undocked from the International Space Station at 11:18 a.m. EDT Monday, backing away for a deorbit maneuver and a planned destructive re-entry later today into Earth's atmosphere to dispose of trash loaded by the crew.
The spacecraft launched in March on a Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, carrying about three tons of food, fuel, and supplies for the space station's crew. After a two-day journey, it arrived at the orbiting laboratory and automatically docked to Poisk module of the space station.
