NASA's space-station blog said Roscosmos Progress 96 docked at the space-facing Poisk port at 9:44 a.m. EDT on 19 September 2026, carrying about three tons for Expedition 75. Space.com recorded the same clock and mass after a three-day chase from a 16 September Baikonur launch.

A 9:44 a.m. EDT hookup
NASA's station blog said Progress 96 docked to the space-facing Poisk port at 9:44 a.m. EDT on 19 September 2026. Space.com printed the same minute. Both pages treat the event as a completed docking, not as a planned window still open. Those pages stop at the figures they printed. A later official tally is not on these pages. The same docking was reported in this morning's edition; what is new here is the 9:44 a.m. Eastern capture and the three-day chase from Baikonur.[1], [2]
About three tons for Expedition 75
NASA put the cargo at about three tons of food, fuel and supplies for Expedition 75. Space.com used the same about-three-tons line. Neither page publishes a line-item manifest. The mass is a round figure, not a gram-level weigh-in. Those pages stop at the figures they printed. A later official tally is not on these pages.[1], [2]
Three days from Baikonur
Space.com said the craft launched from Baikonur on 16 September and chased the station for three days. NASA's blog is the docking note; Space.com adds the launch date that makes the chase length. No page here reports a failed first attempt. Those pages stop at the figures they printed. A later official tally is not on these pages.[2], [1]
