ISS011-E-08856 (15 June 2005) --- Backdropped by a blue and white Earth, an unpiloted Progress 17 supply vehicle departs from the International Space Station (ISS) at 3:16 p.m. (CDT) on June 15, 2005, carrying its load of trash and unneeded equipment to be deorbited and burned up in Earth’s atmosphere. The undocking clears the way for the arrival of a new Progress 18, planned to launch June 16 and dock with the Station on June 18.
