On January 23, 2012 at 22:09 UTC (on January 24 at 02:09 Moscow time) the Russian "Progress M-13M” unmanned supply spacecraft with the "Chibis-M” micro-satellite undocked from the International Space Station (ISS). The spacecraft undocked from the Russian "Pirs” module in an automated mode.
After undocking the "Progress M-13M” was brought to a higher orbit by switching on its engines. After the two orbit corrections, the "Progress M-13M” was positioned at about 500 km to deploy the "Chibis-M” micro-satellite. Attachments: |
