Progress 93 cargo ship Docking

After lifting off from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on Thursday, Sept. 11, a Roscosmos cargo spacecraft, delivering approximately three tons of food, fuel, and supplies, is scheduled to arrive at the International Space Station on Saturday, Sept. 13.

The unpiloted spacecraft will dock autonomously to the aft port of the orbiting laboratory’s Zvezda module at 1:27 p.m. EDT (1727 UTC) on Saturday, Sept. 13.

The Progress 93 spacecraft will remain docked to the space station for approximately six months. Then, it will depart for re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere, disposing of trash loaded by the crew.
