Thank you, Steven, for covering today's undocking in this thread.

Deorbit cancelled around the time of the scheduled burn.

🔴 About the situation with the Progress MS-21 cargo ship

After undocking from the Poisk module of the International Space Station, the outer surface of the Progress MS-21 cargo spacecraft was surveyed. No visual damage was found.

The deorbiting of Progress MS-21 has been postponed.

The State Commission will decide today on the further flight program of the spacecraft.

Two options are being considered: its docking to the Russian nodal module "Prichal" for further clarification of the cause of the depressurization of the ship's thermal control system, or deorbiting.

Uncrewed Progress Spacecraft Deorbit Burn Time Set

On Feb. 17, the uncrewed Roscosmos Progress 82 cargo spacecraft undocked without issue from the International Space Station’s Poisk module at 9:26 p.m. EST. Following undocking, Expedition 68 cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin sent commands from the station’s Roscosmos segment to rotate the Progress for additional visual inspections using space station’s external cameras of the general area where a coolant leak occurred on Feb. 11.

After Progress departure from the space station, flight controllers at Mission Control in Moscow canceled Friday’s scheduled deorbit burn while Roscosmos analyzed the post-undocking imagery collected of the Progress radiator.

Early Saturday, Roscosmos managers decided to deorbit Progress Saturday, Feb. 18, with a deorbit burn time of 10:15 p.m. EST. Progress remains in a stable configuration and on a safe trajectory well away from the International Space Station. Loaded with trash, Progress will deorbit over the Pacific Ocean after spending four months at the station.

The uncrewed Progress 82 cargo spacecraft conducted a deorbit burn at 10:15 p.m. EST Saturday, Feb. 18, over the Pacific Ocean after spending four months at the International Space Station.

Loaded with trash, Progress 82 undocked from the space station’s Poisk module at 9:26 p.m. EST Friday, Feb. 17. The Progress deorbit was delayed about 24-hours while Roscosmos engineers analyzed imagery acquired after undocking of the radiator area of the spacecraft, which is the suspected region where a coolant leak occurred on Feb. 11.
