Progress 95, carrying about three tons of food, fuel, and supplies, launches April 25 from Baikonur Cosmodrome and docks April 27 with the ISS.
The spacecraft will autonomously dock to the Zvezda module and remain attached for about seven months before re-entering Earth’s atmosphere to dispose of trash.
This mission follows Progress 93’s recent undocking and continues over 25 years of continuous ISS habitation, supporting ongoing research and preparations for future Moon and Mars missions.
