Fleet Operations
Progress M-15M (ISS-47P) was the 48th progress robot to arrive at the ISS, including M-MIM2 and M-SO1 which installed modules. Thirty-five flights of the retired NASA Space Shuttle were made to the station. TMA-05M is the 31st Soyuz flight, and there have been three European ATV and three Japanese Kounotori 'White Stork' arrivals.

Famous quotes containing the words fleet and/or operations:
“Believe me, if all those endearing young charms,
Which I gaze on so fondly today,
Were to change by tomorrow, and fleet in my arms,
Like fairy-gifts fading away.”
—Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
“A sociosphere of contact, control, persuasion and dissuasion, of exhibitions of inhibitions in massive or homeopathic doses...: this is obscenity. All structures turned inside out and exhibited, all operations rendered visible. In America this goes all the way from the bewildering network of aerial telephone and electric wires ... to the concrete multiplication of all the bodily functions in the home, the litany of ingredients on the tiniest can of food, the exhibition of income or IQ.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
