After backing away to a distance of about 600 feet, Expedition 48 cosmonauts Alexey Ovchinin and Oleg Skripochka of the Russian space agency Roscosmos took manual control of the spacecraft, using a workstation in the Zvezda Service Module. Progress redocked under TORU control at 06:05 UTC.
Germany beat Italy on penalties to progress to semi-finals
It is believed the large motion was caused by the firing of Progress’ DPO thrusters along both the X and Y axis at contact.
Normally, with the ISS in free drift, the Progress fires the X axis thrusters to drive the docking probe into the cone on the port. However, the firing of the Y axis thrusters was not expected and can risk the probe becoming bent by the additional motion. The firing of the Y axis thrusters is understood to be under investigation.
Once departed from the Station’s neighborhood, Progress MS-01 – loaded with trash from the ISS – will be deorbited by Russian flight controllers to burn up in the Earth’s atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean.

Technically the test was successful, with Roscosmos noting the Progress MS has successfully carried out a test of the system improved remote manual spacecraft control – TORU (teleoperator control mode). All operations of the test program we have done successfully, and even made a few good pictures for the story.
Thankfully, the probe appears to have avoided any damage, as it played a nominal role in the release of Progress MS-01 during the early hours of Sunday.
The 30 minute activity tested the newly installed manual docking system inside the station’s Russian segment. Progress MS-01 undocked from Pirs at 05:36 UTC on Friday.

The Russian resupply vehicle Progress MS-01 (P-62) has departed from the International Space Station (ISS) for its End Of Mission (EOM) events. The departure came after a test was conducted on Friday which saw the cargo ship conduct a successful checkout of its manual docking control system. However, the spacecraft did suffer an off-nominal redocking, which is under investigation.
The upgraded MS range of the Progress vehicles now sport an external compartment that enables it to deploy small satellites,
This, in part, resulted in a test being carried out on Friday, where the Progress automatically undocked from the Pirs Docking Compartment of the space station to be manually be guided in to re-dock.
