MIRNEWS.284     14 DECEMBER 1995

Progress-M30: This freighter will be launched from Baykonur on 18.12.1995
at 1431UTC. Pr-M30 has to dock with MIR on 20.12.1995

Orbit correction: On 9.12.1995 at 1800UTC the engines of Progress-M29 gave
an impulse which corrected the orbit of the complex. The apogee became 4 NM
higher. So a 2nd orbit correction might be possible. After the first
correction the following Kepler elements could be used: Epoch: 345.28942709
Decay: 0.00000911   Inc. 51.6447 Raan: 350.4978  Ecc: 0.0006124  Arg. Per.:
89.4677 MA: 270.7022  MM: 15.57457538 Orb. nr. 56056.

Progress-M29: This freighter will be separated from MIR if on 19.12.1995
the systems of Progress-M30 are functioning well.
