On March 11, 2015 at 22:44 UTC (on March 12 at 01:44 Moscow time)  the Russian “Soyuz TMA-14M” spacecraft undocked from the Russian "Poisk” (MIM-2) module of the International Space Station to deliver to Earth the 3 members of Expedition 42 – Russian cosmonauts Aleksandr Samokutyaev and Elena Serova as well as American astronaut Barry Wilmore.

On March 05, 2015 at 01:45 UTC the “Flock-1b.11” and “Flock-1b.12” CubeSat satellites were launched from the International Space Station. CubeSat satellites were deployed from the Japanese “Kibo” module of the ISS.

On March 04, 2015 at 01:20 UTC the “TechEdSat-4” (Technical and Educational Satellite-4, TES-4) and “GEARRSat” (Globalstar Experiment And Risk Reduction Satellite) CubeSat satellites were launched from the International Space Station. At the same day MicroMAS (Micro-sized Microwave Atmospheric Satellite) and LambdaSat CubeSat satellites were launched from the International Space Station. The 4 CubeSat satellites were deployed from the Japanese “Kibo” module of the ISS. The satellites were delivered to the ISS by the “Cygnus” unmanned supply spacecraft in July 2014.

On March 03, 2015 at 03:00 UTC the “Flock-1D-1” and “Flock-1D-2” CubeSat satellites were launched from the International Space Station. On March 03, 2015 at 10:50 UTC the “Flock-1b.5” and “Flock-1b.6” CubeSat satellites were launched from the International Space Station. CubeSat satellites were deployed from the Japanese “Kibo” module of the ISS. The satellites were delivered to the ISS by the “Cygnus” unmanned supply spacecraft in July 2014.

On March 01, 2015 American astronauts Barry Wilmore and Terry Virts performed the spacewalk for the third time in eight days to complete initial preparations for upcoming dockings by commercially developed Boeing and SpaceX crew ferry ships. The EVA lasted 5 hours and 42 minutes.

On February 27, 2015 at 14:30 UTC the “Flock-1b.27” and “Flock-1b.28” CubeSat satellites were launched from the International Space Station. CubeSat satellites were deployed from the Japanese “Kibo” module of the ISS. The satellites were delivered to the ISS by the “Cygnus” unmanned supply spacecraft in July 2014.

On February 25, 2015 American astronauts Barry Wilmore and Terry Virts performed the spacewalk for the second of three spacewalks to help ready the ISS for dockings by commercial crew capsules being built by Boeing and SpaceX. The EVA lasted 6 hours and 43 minutes.

On February 24, 2015, Aleksey Alexandrovich GUBAREV, pilot-cosmonaut of USSR, passed away at the age of 83.

On February 21, 2015 American astronauts Barry Wilmore and Terry Virts performed the spacewalk to install wiring needed for two new docking mechanisms that will be attached later this year for use by Boeing and SpaceX crew capsules. The astronauts installed 8 cables with the total length of about 100 meters. The EVA lasted 6 hours and 41 minutes.

This was the second spacewalk for Wilmore and the first for Virts. With the completion of Saturday’s work, 120 astronauts and cosmonauts representing nine nations have logged 1,159 hours and eight minutes of spacewalk time, or 48.3 days.
