Russian Progress MS-32 Cargo Spacecraft Departure | International Space Station

Expedition 74 commander and Russian cosmonaut Sergey-Kud Sverchkov: "The ISS isn't just about conducting experiments in orbit. It also involves logistics, sometimes quite intensive. A week ago, the American Cygnus XL cargo ship arrived. And last night, we were already carrying out our Progress MS-32. Last week, we loaded it with waste and used equipment, and yesterday it undocked, freeing up the docking port for the next ship. We're expecting Progress MS-34 in another week: launch on April 26th and docking on the 28th."

Expedition 74 Update: The unpiloted Roscosmos Progress 93 cargo spacecraft undocked from the International Space Station (ISS) at 6:08 p.m. EDT Monday, April 20, 2026, backing away for a deorbit maneuver and a planned destructive re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere to dispose of trash loaded by the crew.

This Russian spacecraft launched in September 2025 on a Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, carrying about three tons of food, fuel, and supplies for the space station’s crew. After a two-day journey, it arrived at the orbiting laboratory and automatically docked to the aft port of the station’s Zvezda service module.
