The spacecraft will stay in orbit for another 9 days before falling into the Pacific Ocean.
ISS crews also loaded the waste from the ISS Station into the spacecraft. For the next 9 days, the Progress M-11M will conduct an experiment to determine the density, size and reflection of the ionosphere around the Space Station.
After that, the spacecraft will be turned around orbit and burned in Earth's atmosphere. Its fragment will fall into the remote area of the Pacific Ocean.
The next Cargo Progress vessel will be launched on August 24, 2011 from Baikonur Space Center in Kazakhstan. It will access the ISS station on August 26, 2011.
