Kevin: Remember, this is a 3 day transit to ISS, so the altitude increases are not scheduled until tomorrow. There was an orbital stabilization burn today to keep the orbit at 224 X 259 km. Tomorrow's burns are scheduled for orbits 48 and 49, but even the orbit 48 burn only raises the orbit to: 250 X 290 km. The schedule is on this TsUp web site (in Russian): http://www.mcc.rsa.ru/progres_m58.htm DWA At 02:33 PM 10/25/2006, Kevin Fetter wrote: >According to what I see on spacetrack, the progress M58 spacecaft ( >29503 ) going to dock to the >iss on Oct 26, doesn't have to appear to raised it's orbit, like I >thought it should have by now. > >It's less 17 hours to it's was going to dock, so I find it weird >it's in a much lower then the >iss.
