Launch

Progress M1-8 was launched by a Soyuz-U carrier rocket from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Launch occurred at 20:13:39 UTC on 21 March 2002. [1]

Docking

The spacecraft docked with the aft port of the Zvezda module at 20:57:56 UTC on 24 March 2002. [2] [3] It remained docked for 93 days before undocking at 08:26:30 UTC on 25 June 2002 [2] to make way for Progress M-46. [4] It was deorbited at 11:35:00 UTC on the same day. [2] The spacecraft burned up in the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean, with any remaining debris landing in the ocean at around 12:26:52 UTC. [2] [5]

Progress M1-8 carried supplies to the International Space Station, including food, water and oxygen for the crew and equipment for conducting scientific research.
