“Roscosmos” reports that the “Progress MS-29” cargo ship has arrived at the Baikonur Cosmodrome

The Progress MS-29 cargo ship has arrived at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. It is planned to be launched to the International Space Station (ISS) on a Soyuz-2.1a rocket in the autumn. This is reported by the state corporation Roscosmos.

“In the assembly and testing facility of the 254th site of the cosmodrome the ship was unloaded and installed on the workplace for acceptance and further conservation,” – the state corporation announced.

It is noted that during the acceptance test specialists of the rocket and space corporation Energia inspected the ship and checked the deployment of solar panels.

In May, the state corporation reported that the Progress MS-25 supply transport ship was undocked from the Search module of the Russian segment of the ISS and entered the Earth’s atmosphere.
