Where will the Progress MS-21 dock ?On a side port of Pritchal ?
Quote from: vp. on 10/07/2022 02:24 pmWhere will the Progress MS-21 dock ?On a side port of Pritchal ?None of the side ports of Prichal are configured for docking so it will either replace Progress MS-19 docked to Poisk, Progress MS-20 docked to Zvezda, or dock to the Earth facing port of Prichal
She will spend 145 days on the ISS. Her position is flight engineer. Together with colleagues, Kikina will maintain the station's performance and ensure scientific experiments.
