Russia has developed a new version of the Progress M1 freighter spacecraft to deliver extra fuel to Mir in place of cargo. This will double the propellant load on Mir, giving it enough fuel to make a controlled crash maneuver next April, landing in the Pacific Ocean. The Russians continue to hope against hope that funding will be found to keep Mir in orbit.--Stephen V Cole
