Yet another "home video" from Kromtau, Northwest Kazakhstan:

(with colourful language)

Pretty much the same as the first posted launch video, but much smoother:

(sorry, but I just must keep posting these videos here... This was simply too cool looking launch and it deserves all the publicity it has got and will get)

Probably the next video I post to this thread will be the docking coverage.

www.federalspace.ru : Progress M03-M to Deorbit Today
:: 27.04.2010

Progress M03-M deorbiting and drowning is planned to be carried out on April 27. The space cargo vehicle undocked from the International Space Station on April 22.
Scheduled Progress M03-M deorbiting operations include activation of the braking thrusters at 22:05 Moscow time, following the commands from the MCC. The retro-burn will last 168,6 sec, providing the Progress with braking thrust of 82,3 mps.
Falling down of the Progress fragments into the Pacific is expected at 22.50 Moscow time. Fall center geographical coordinates are: 42º51’ southern latitude, 141º 26’ western longitude (southern area of the Pacific ocean).
Progress was flying autonomously since April 22. During this autonomous mission, Radar-Progress technical experiment is to be carried out. The experiment is aimed at defining density, sizes and reflectivity of the ionosphere environment around the vehicle, which is caused by operations of the Progress` liquid propellant engines. TsNIIMASh, Korolev, is the curator of Radar- Progress.
After separation, the Progress will continue flying autonomously till April 27. During this autonomous mission, Radar-Progress technical experiment is to be carried out. The experiment is aimed at defining density, sizes and reflectivity of the ionosphere environment around the vehicle, which is caused by operations of the Progress` liquid propellant engines. TsNIIMASh, Korolev, is the curator of Radar- Progress.
