ISS013-E-38933 (19 June 2006) --- This close-up view of an unpiloted Progress supply vehicle was photographed by an Expedition 13 crewmember on the International Space Station as it departed from the Pirs Docking Compartment. The Progress 20 undocked June 19, 2006 and was later commanded to de-orbit with its load of trash and unneeded equipment and burn in Earth's atmosphere. The undocking clears the way for the arrival of a new Progress 22, planned to launch June 24 and dock with the station on June 26.
