From NASA Space Station On-Orbit Status 21 November 2005
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewsr.html?pid=18759

"After the highly successful U.S. EVA-4 on 11/7, which included accomplishment of all get-ahead tasks, NASA specialists have determined that there is no requirement for the originally planned EVA-5 prior to Shuttle Mission ULF1.1 next year. The spacewalk has therefore been taken off the requirements list for the 20P Stage time period. The new date for the Russian EVA-15 has now been set for February 2, ’06, after joined evaluation by Russian and U.S. specialists."

The rumour... MCC-M expert told me that Progress M-54 possibly will not be undocked from ISS on December 20, 2005... MCC-M wants to leave Progress M-54 on ISS because there are much unused oxygen in this cargo ship...

Is there really any rush to dump the ship?

From NASA Space Station On-Orbit Status 28 November 2005
http://www.spaceref.com/news/viewsr.html?pid=18824

"The Elektron oxygen generator continues to be off (since 11/26), to allow use of the remaining Progress O2 before 19P undocking on 12/20. [An 8.2 mmHg O2 repress was performed yesterday (11/27).  Section 1 of the Progress tankage is now empty; ~69.5 kg of O2 remain in Section 2.]"

"TsUP/Moscow is looking at a possible delay in 19P undocking (from 12/20) to allow more time for consuming its stored O2 and conducting additional trash disposal.  Ground teams are jointly studying this scenario, under which 20P would still be launched on time and would dock to the DC1 docking compartment's nadir port."

This sounds interesting. Has any Progress's ever docked to DC1? Will be interesting to see how this plays out in the end.

Yes, because Progress M-55 will dock to the same port, on which Progress M-54 is now...

Yes, of course... Progress M1-10 in June 2003, for example...

Was M-54 the Progress that had engine problems when trying to raise the ISS orbit?

Anik, do you know if two Progress ships can be in close proximity to the station at the same time?  I was just wondering what was the last hour (time wise) for the old progress to be undocked with a new one approaching.

Yes, of course, they can... But I think, that it is a very dangerous situation, because it is difficult to operate by two cargo ships simultaneously...
