Food is on it's way
I picked up signals from the new Russian spacecraft with supplies for the International Space Station, Progress M-51, on 24 December 2003:
At 0252.25-0258.00 UT on 166.0 MHz
At 0252.30-0247.20 on 922.76 MHz
I have been picking up signals from Progress space ships since early 1978 - it is an amazing 27 years ago. These space station supply craft have been extremely reliable, actually it was with the then current space station, Salyut-6, that the Russians finally got their spacecraft really reliable.
So, it seems the flight is off to a good start and if this continues the ISS crew will have enough food to continue the mission on the ISS.
