Russia’s Progress MS-28 cargo ship undocked from ISS

Moscow, Feb 26 (Prensa Latina) Russia's Progress MS-28 cargo ship undocked from the International Space Station (ISS) after a six-month stay and will be sunk in the Pacific Ocean, the Roscosmos space corporation announced on Wednesday.

After switching on the propulsion systems, the cargo ship was undocked from the ISS and began its descent from orbit in the dense layers of the atmosphere, and then collapse. The unburned structural elements of the ship will fall into a non-navigable area of the Pacific Ocean, Roscosmos stated.

The Progress MS-28 docked with the ISS on August 17, 2024, carrying more than 2.6 tons of cargo, including supplies, fuel, and equipment for several scientific experiments, in particular the SPIN-X1-MVN X-ray spectrometer, to the orbiting station.
