The spacecraft burned up in the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean at around 23:29 GMT.[4][5][6]
Progress M1-2 carried supplies to Mir, including food, water and oxygen for the crew and equipment for conducting scientific research. Progress M1-2 was the first privately funded resupply mission to a space station. It was funded by RKK Energia as part of the MirCorp programme.[7] It was the last Progress spacecraft to be docked to Mir whilst a crew was present aboard the station.
