Progress MS-35 set to resupply space station
Roscosmos' Progress MS-35 (96P) spacecraft is set to launch to the International Space Station on Wednesday (Sept. 9) at 11:15 a.m. EDT (1515 GMT or 9:15 p.m. local time) atop a Soyuz 2.1b rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
The spacecraft is scheduled to dock autonomously at 2:37 p.m. EDT (1837 GMT) on Friday (Sept. 11) to the space-facing port of the space station's Poisk module.
Progress MS-35 is delivering about three tons of food, fuel, and supplies for the Expedition 75 crew.

According to reports on social media, the launch of Progress MS-35 may be delayed about a week due to an issue with the Soyuz 2.1b rocket's third stage.

On the occasion of the launch of the Progress MS-35 spacecraft, Roscosmos Director Dmitry Bakanov announced:
"Today, an exoskeleton for one of the robotic systems was sent to the International Space Station (ISS). In November, we will deliver the robotic system itself, which is capable of performing particularly dangerous and risky operations without endangering the lives of our cosmonauts." The “Teledroid” experiment is divided into three phases:
Control of the virtual robot model, experiments with the robot in the pressurized section of the space station, and work outside the ISS (NAUKA module).
A special experiment table and an external camera for observation and monitoring will be installed there.
In the final phase, the robot will be controlled from the station and will practice autonomously handling equipment on the table (such as electrical plugs, hand tools, carabiners, and safety ropes).
