Manifest
Each Progress mission delivers pressurized and unpressurized cargo to the station. The pressurized section carries consumables such as food, along with equipment for maintenance and scientific research. The unpressurized section contains tanks of fuel, drinking water, and gases to replenish the onboard atmosphere, which are transferred to the station through automated systems.4
Progress MS-32 delivered new Orlan-MKS spacesuits for use during Russian spacewalks, which allow extravehicular activities of up to eight hours.
For this mission, Progress MS-32 carried a total of 2,516 kg (5,547 lb) of cargo and supplies, including:5
- Pressurized supplies: 1,176 kg (2,593 lb), including:
- 364 kg (802 lb) of food
- 206 kg (454 lb) of equipment for scientific experiments
- 86 kg (190 lb) of hygiene supplies
- 19 kg (42 lb) of medical equipment
