Russian cargo ship Progress MS-21, which recently suffered a loss of air-pressure, on Saturday undocked from the International Space Station, Russian space agency Roscosmos said.
After undocking at 2.26 am, the cosmonauts onboard the ISS manually turned the special spaceship to take photos of the point where the outer surface had been presumably damaged.
However, Roscosmos announced that the ship’s scheduled exit from its orbit – at 4.03 am – and the eventual planned crash into the Pacific Ocean had been postponed.
The agency said that after undocking from the Poisk module of the ISS, the outer surface of Progress MS-21 did not show any visible damage upon inspection.
It added that a decision on how to proceed with the cargo ship would be taken later on Saturday.
