On March 27, 2022 at 07:59 UTC the Chinese “Tianzhou-2” unmanned supply spacecraft was undocked from the Chinese “Tianhe” core module (Chinese Space Station).

On March 23, 2022 American astronauts Raja Chari and German astronaut Matthias Maurer performed the spacewalk to install hoses on a Radiator Beam Valve Module that routes ammonia through the station's heat-rejecting radiators to keep systems at the proper temperature. They also installed a power and data cable on the Columbus module's Bartolomeo science platform, replaced an external camera on the station's truss, and conducted other upgrades to station hardware.  The EVA lasted 6 hours and 54 minutes. It was the 2^nd spacewalk for Raja Chari and the 1^st spacewalk for Matthias Maurer.

On March 18, 2022 at 19:12 UTC, the Russian "Soyuz MS-21” spacecraft docked with the Russian “Prichal” module of the International Space Station. The spacecraft delivered 3 members of Expedition 66/67 to the ISS, Russian cosmonauts Oleg Artemyev, Denis Matveev, Sergey Korsakov. The new comers joined current ISS Expedition 66 members – Russian cosmonauts Anton Shkaplerov and Pyotr Dubrov; US astronauts Mark Vande Hei, Raja Chari, Thomas Marshburn and Kayla Barron; German astronaut Matthias Maurer. The 10 crew members will work together during 12 days. After a 12-day “handover,” Artemyev, Matveev and Korsakov will replace Shkaplerov, Dubrov and Vande Hei, who plan to return to Earth aboard the “Soyuz MS-19” on March 30. The day before, Shkaplerov will turn over command of the station to Marshburn. The mission ... Read more »

On March 18, 2022 at 15:55 UTC the Russian “Soyuz MS-21” spacecraft was launched from Baykonur Cosmodrome. The space vehicle was orbited by the Russian “Soyuz-2.1a” rocket-carrier. The spacecraft is piloted by 3 Russian cosmonauts: Commander, Oleg Artemyev (center); flight-engineer 1, Denis Matveev (right); flight-engineer 2, Sergey Korsakov (left).

On March 15, 2022 American astronauts Kayla Barron and Raja Chari performed the spacewalk to install brackets and struts to support new solar arrays to upgrade the power system of ISS. The EVA lasted 6 hours and 54 minutes. It was the 2^nd spacewalk for Kayla Barron and the 1^st spacewalk for Raja Chari.

On February 21, 2022, the US "Cygnus” CRS-17 (NG-17, the S. S. Piers Sellers) private unmanned supply spacecraft was docked to the International Space Station (ISS). The Cygnus spacecraft was grappled by a robotic arm at 09:44 UTC. The cargo spacecraft was docked to the station’s "Unity” module at 12:02 UTC. The spacecraft delivered about 3700 kilograms of supplies to the Space Station. It was the 17^th docking of a "Cygnus” spacecraft with the ISS. This is the 6^th flight of Cygnus under the CRS-2 contract.

On February 19, 2022 at 17:40 UTC the "Cygnus” privately owned U.S. unmanned supply spacecraft was launched from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport (MARS), a commercial space launch facility located at the southern tip of NASA's Wallops Flight Facility on Wallops Island, Virginia, USA. The spacecraft was orbited by the “Antares-230” rocket-carrier. The "Cygnus” NG-17 (the S. S. Piers Sellers), previously known as CRS OA-17, unmanned supply spacecraft, built by U.S. space firm Orbital Sciences Corp., was orbited on its cargo resupply mission to the International Space Station. CRS means Commercial Resupply Services. The "Cygnus” NG-17 is the 17^th successful flight of the Orbital ATK uncrewed resupply spacecraft Cygnus.

On February 17, 2022 at 10:03 Moscow time the Russian “Progress MS-19” unmanned supply spacecraft docked to the International Space Station. The spacecraft was docked to the Russian “Poisk” module. The spacecraft delivered about 2500 kilograms of cargo for the ISS crew.

On January 24, 2022 at 21:05 UTC the "Dragon” capsule splashed down in the in the Atlantic Ocean not far from Florida, USA. It was the "SpaceX CRS-24” mission. CRS means Commercial Resupply Services. It was the 4^th flight of the new generation of Dragon cargo capsules also known SpaceX Dragon 2 or Cargo Dragon 2. It was the 24^th flight of Cargo Dragon to the ISS with docking, including a demonstration flight in 2012.
