A NASA space station blog post dated Sept. 19, 2026, reported that the Roscosmos Progress 96 cargo spacecraft docked to the space-facing port of the International Space Station's Poisk module at 9:44 a.m. EDT on that Saturday. According to the report, the spacecraft delivered about three tons of food, fuel and supplies for the Expedition 75 crew.
The post said Progress 96 launched at 9:33 a.m. on Sept. 16 (6:33 p.m. Baikonur time) aboard a Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. It was to remain at the station for about five months before departing for a planned destructive re-entry intended to dispose of trash.
These details reflect the status described in the Sept. 19 report; the docking, the approximately five-month stay and the planned re-entry are as stated at that time.
