Progress M-MRM2 Progress M-SO2 | Poisk: 3580 kg | Cargo: 800 kg

Progress M-MIM2 (, alternatively transliterated as Progress M-MRM2 and originally designated Progress M-SO2) was a specially modified Progress M 11F615A55 spacecraft, Russian production No. 302, which was used to deliver the Poisk (MRM 2) module to the Russian Orbital Segment of the International Space Station. It was launched on 10 November 2009 at 14:22:04 UTC. The spacecraft consisted of a Progress M propulsion compartment, with the pressurized cargo section of the spacecraft removed to accommodate Poisk, similar to the Progress M-SO1 spacecraft which was used to deliver the Pirs module to the station in 2001. This was the 126th flight of a Progress spacecraft.

Launch

Progress M-MIM2 and Poisk were launched by a Soyuz-U carrier rocket flying from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. The launch occurred at 14:22 GMT on 10 November 2009. At launch, Progress M-MIM2 had a total mass of 7102 kg, including the 3670 kg Poisk module.

Docking

The spacecraft docked with the zenith port of the International Space Station's Zvezda module on 12 November. Capture occurred at 15:41 GMT, and initial docking was completed successfully at 15:44.

Undocking and Decay

At 00:16 GMT on 8 December, Progress M-MIM2 was undocked from Poisk, and at 04:48 GMT its engines ignited to begin a 38-second deorbit burn. It reentered the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean at 05:27, and had broken up by 05:32.
