iss071e294839 (June 1, 2024) --- Expedition 71 Commander Oleg Kononenko (foreground) and Flight Engineer Nikolai Chub, both Roscosmos cosmonauts, are pictured inside the International Space Station's Zvezda service module monitoring the automated rendevous and docking of the Progress 88 cargo craft to the Poisk module. The duo was at the controls of Zvezda's TORU, or telerobotically-operated rendezvous unit, ready to take remote control of the Progress 88, packed with about three tons of food, fuel, and supplies for the Expedition 71 crew, in the unlikely event the spacecraft would be unable to dock on its own.
