Template:Short description Template:Use British English Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Infobox spaceflight Progress M-01M (Template:Langx), identified by NASA as Progress 31P, was a Progress spacecraft used to resupply the International Space Station. It was the first flight of the Progress-M 11F615A60, which featured a TsVM-101 digital flight computer and MBITS digital telemetry system,[1] in place of the earlier analogue systems. It was the first Progress-M 11F615A60 spacecraft, and had the serial number 401.

Launch

It was launched at 12:38 UTC on 26 November 2008 from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, atop a Soyuz-U carrier rocket. Following a four-day free flight, it docked with Pirs module of the ISS at 12:28 UTC on 30 November 2008.

Antenna problem

Immediately after launch, an antenna used by the spacecraft's Kurs docking system failed to deploy.[2] The antenna was successfully deployed about three hours later after flight controllers resent the deployment command,[3] however the spacecraft was docked using the backup TORU system,[4] controlled by cosmonaut Yury Lonchakov, as a precaution.

Docking

It remained docked until 6 February 2009, when it undocked at 04:10 UTC. It subsequently spent two days in free flight, before being deorbited, and burning up in the atmosphere at 08:19 UTC on 8 February 2009.[5]
