NASA to Provide Coverage of Progress 92 Launch, Space Station Docking

NASA will provide live coverage of the launch and mooring of a ROSCOSMOS spacecraft delivering approximately three tonnes of food, fuel and supplies to the 73 shipping crew on the international space station.

The ROSCOSMOS PROGRAIS 92 non -biloted spacecraft should be launched at 3:32 p.m. HAE, Thursday, July 3 (12:32 p.m. Baikonur time, Friday July 4), on a Soyuz rocket of Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

The live launch cover will start at 3:10 p.m. on NASA +. Learn to look at the contents of NASA via a variety of platforms, including social media.

After a two -day orbit trip to the station, the spacecraft will independently dock the spatial port of the laboratory’s weight module in orbit at 5.27 p.m. on Saturday 5 July. The NASA appointment and reception cover will start at 4:45 p.m. at NASA +.

The Progress Progress 92 spaceship will remain moored at the space station for about six months before leaving to enter the land atmosphere to eliminate the waste loaded from the crew.

Before the arrival of the spacecraft, the Spatial Progress 90 will disconnect from the Pisk module on Tuesday, July 1. NASA will not broadcast disagreement.

The international space station is a convergence of science, technology and human innovation which allows not possible research on earth. For almost 25 years, NASA has supported an American human presence continued on the orbit laboratory, through which astronauts have learned to live and work in space for long periods. The space station is a springboard to develop an economy of the low land and the next big jumps of NASA in exploration, including the missions on the moon under Artemis and, ultimately, the human exploration of Mars.
