MIRNEWS.322 16 AUGUST 1996 Soyuz-TM24: The most recent information from Moscow confirms that the launch of this ship with the relief- crew for the 22d Main Expedition to MIR is still planned for 17.08.1996 at 1317UTC. If all goes according to plan S-TM24 will dock at MIR on 19.08.1996 at 1449UTC. Progress-M32: This freighter will separate from MIR on 18.08.1996 at 0931UTC. In contradiction to the supposition in MIRNEWS.321 Pr-M32 will not be brought on a destruction course, but stay in orbit in an autonomous flight. The Pr-M32 will redock to MIR after the departure of S-TM23 with the relieved crew. The redocking has to take place on 3.09.1996. Progress-M32 will be used to reboost the MIR-complex in the original somewhat higher orbit after the return to earth of Atlantis (STS-79) in september. Chris v.d. Berg, NL-9165/A-UK3202.
