Progress MS-33

Mission description

Progress MS-33 is a Roscosmos cargo mission to resupply the International Space Station. NASA identifies the spacecraft as Progress 94 (ISS mission 94P). The vehicle is planned to rendezvous and dock autonomously with the ISS, targeting the space-facing (zenith) port of the Poisk module. As a Progress MS-series freighter, it is intended to deliver a mix of pressurized cargo (crew supplies and station hardware) and tanked commodities (such as propellant and other fluids/gases used for station support), then later depart with refuse for disposal at the end of the mission. Planning for this flight has been affected by damage at Baikonur’s Site 31/6 discovered after a prior Soyuz launch, which drove schedule adjustments and downstream ISS logistics changes.
