Progress M-20 ( Russian: Прогресс M-20) was a Russian unmanned Progress cargo spacecraft, which was launched in 1993 to resupply the Mir space station.
Progress M-20 launched on 11 October 1993 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. It used a Soyuz-U rocket. [2]
Progress M-20 docked with the aft port of the Kvant-1 module of Mir on 13 October 1993 at 23:24:46 UTC, and was undocked on 21 November 1993 at 02:38:43 UTC. [4] [5]
It remained in orbit until 21 November 1993, when it was deorbited. The VBK-Raduga 10 capsule was jettisoned at 08:50 UTC, immediately before reentry. The mission ending occurred at 09:03 UTC, when the VBK-Raduga capsule landed across the Kazakh border from the Russian city of Orsk. [3]
