ISS Progress

The ISS Progress is a spaceship designed to deliver supplies, such as food, water, fuel, and equipment, from Earth to the International Space Station (ISS). It is launched by Russia and operates autonomously, docking automatically with the station. Once connected, it unloads its cargo and may also transfer waste and used supplies back to Earth or burn up upon re-entry. The Progress helps keep astronauts onboard well-equipped and the ISS functioning smoothly, playing a vital role in the station’s ongoing operations and research in space.
