Crew Sets Stage for More Progress Work
Expedition 10 Works in Progress
The Expedition 10 crew began the final workweek of 2004 by removing docking equipment to allow full access to the newly arrived Progress 16 spacecraft. The Progress arrived at the International Space Station on Christmas Day, delivering more than 2.5 tons (2,268 kilograms) of cargo, including propellant, oxygen and air to help maintain the Station's atmosphere, water, spare parts and experiment hardware. It also delivered holiday presents and about a 112-day supply of food for the crew. Over the next two days, Expedition 10 Commander Leroy Chiao and Flight Engineer Salizhan Sharipov will continue efforts to integrate the Progress and ISS systems. They will also continue to unload the cargo ship. In other activities, the crewmembers monitored science experiments, maintained ISS systems and exercised. -- -------------- Jacques :-) www.spacepatches.info |
