Progress M-24

 1994-052A


Progress M 11F615A55 No. 224 (Progress M-24) was launched on 1994 Aug 25. Its first attempt to dock with Kvant on Aug 27 failed; on the second attempt it actually hit the Kvant module at least two times. A last ditch third attempt with teleoperated control by Malenchenko aboard the station was a success.
