Russia's ISS Progress 75 cargo craft, seen departing from the International Space Station April 27, 2021 after undocking from the Zvezda service module's aft port, where it stayed for just over a year. The trash-filled spacecraft reentered Earth's atmosphere above the South Pacific for a fiery but safe demise a day later.
