The Progress 40 resupply vehicle in orbit

January 23, 2011 - The unpiloted ISS Progress 40 supply vehicle departs from the International Space Station. Filled with trash and discarded items, Progress 40 will be used for scientific experiments until it is deorbited and burned up in Earths atmosphere. Its departure clears the way for the arrival of the next Russian resupply vehicle, ISS Progress 41

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the departure of the unpiloted ISS Progress 40 resupply vehicle from the International Space Station. Floating gracefully in orbit against a backdrop of infinite darkness, this unmanned spacecraft marks another milestone in space exploration. Filled to the brim with discarded items and trash accumulated during its stay at the station, Progress 40 now embarks on a new mission as a platform for scientific experiments. As it glides through space, powered by its solar panels glistening under the sun's rays, this Russian-made resupply vehicle paves the way for future advancements. Its departure clears a path for ISS Progress 41 to arrive and continue supporting astronauts aboard the International Space Station. The image showcases progress not only in technology but also in our understanding of outer space. With no human presence visible, it reminds us of humanity's ability to explore and push boundaries beyond Earth's atmosphere. This photograph serves as an emblematic representation of telerobotics and robotic spacecraft that have become integral parts of modern-day space missions. Through collaboration between international agencies like Roscosmos - Russia's federal space agency - we witness how aerospace achievements are made possible through collective efforts. As artificial satellites dotting our skies become symbols of mankind's curiosity and ambition, this stunning visual testament invites us to marvel at our journey into uncharted territories while reminding us that even discarded objects can serve a greater purpose before ultimately meeting their fiery demise upon reentry into Earth's atmosphere.
