Progress M-51 (Template:Lang-ru), identified by NASA as Progress 16P, was a Progress spacecraft used to resupply the International Space Station. It was a Progress-M 11F615A55 spacecraft, with the serial number 351.[1]

Launch

Progress M-51 was launched by a Soyuz-U carrier rocket from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Launch occurred at 22:19:34 UTC on 23 December 2004.[1]

Docking

The spacecraft docked with the aft port of the Zvezda module at 23:57:45 UTC on 25 December 2004.[2][3] It remained docked for 64 days before undocking at 16:06:30 UTC on 27 February 2005.[2] to make way for Progress M-52[4] Between undocking and deorbit, Progress M-51 was used for a series of tests. It was deorbited at 16:17:00 UTC on 9 March 2005.[2] The spacecraft burned up in the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean, with any remaining debris landing in the ocean at around 17:03:11 UTC.[2][5]

Progress M-51 carried supplies to the International Space Station, including food, water and oxygen for the crew and equipment for conducting scientific research.
