Talk:Progress M-05M

Infobox Cargo Details
There are four cargo types in the infobox, i.e., fuel/dry/water/cargo. Can someone explain what is meant by dry ?. The following link mentions that Progress M-05M was carrying: "NASA officials said Progress 37 is hauling 1,918 pounds (870 kg) of propellant, 110 pounds (50 kg) of oxygen and air, 220 pounds (100 kg) of water, and about 3,301 pounds (1,497 kg) of experiment hardware and spare parts."

 * Solid cargo (ie. not fuel, water or air). In this case, the "experiment hardware and spare parts" would constitute dry cargo. -- G W … 07:59, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
 * So cargo is the total sum of fuel,O2+air,water and experiment hardware?152.226.7.202 (talk) 00:21, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

For Progress-M the main tanks carry fuel, oxidizer, and water. These are located where the descent module would be in a manned Soyuz. Other non-dry cargo (liquids and gases) could be carried in containers in the section that holds dry cargo. Water was carried there in the Progress-M1 variant, for example. The dry cargo can include things other than experiment hardware, e.g. replacement station operating hardware. For example in June 2007 a corrosion-induced short circuit lead to simultaneous shutdown of all three computers that allow the Russian orbital segment to control station attitude. Replacement parts were sent via Progress M-61/26P. (sdsds - talk) 02:09, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Docking Time
Some sources including NASA ISS Daily report mentions that the docking occured at 2.30 pm EDT while other sources (also includes some NASA pages) mentions that it was 2.30 pm EDT. So do not know which one is the correct time Kurun (talk) 01:37, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
