Station Crew Busy with Progress and Science Activities

ISS Status Report

The Expedition 20 crew is filling the Progress 33 with discarded equipment, gear and trash for disposal. The cargo craft will undock from the International Space Station on Tuesday and will enter the Earth's atmosphere and burn up over the Pacific Ocean on July 12.

Before deorbiting the Progress 33 will rendezvous with the station one final time to test newly installed Kurs equipment in advance of the arrival of the Mini-Research Module 2 in November. The Kurs equipment was installed during a spacewalk earlier this month.

While Progress vehicles are docked with the station, the oxygen stored in them is used to replenish the station's atmosphere. The crew monitored the purging of the Progress 33's fuel and oxidizer supplies Friday and tested the Zvezda to Progress telerobotically operated rendezvous system.

Description: 
VA3CSA, He made many calls. I tried to call him at all frequencies. When the ISS was 2 degrees, I remembered the way repeater (437,800 MHz). VA3CSA responded to my call merely copied my call sign. He asked me to repeat my call sign. But the ISS was outside my scope. Then all the stations keep an eye on the uplink of UHF repeater mode ( 437.800 MHz ). Good luck. 73. Piraja.
