Progress M-19 (Russian: Прогресс M-19) was a Russian unmanned Progress cargo spacecraft, which was launched in 1993 to resupply the Mir space station.
Progress M-19 launched on 10 August 1993 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. It used a Soyuz-U rocket.[2]
Progress M-19 docked with the aft port of the Kvant-1 module of Mir on 13 August 1993 at 00:00:06 UTC, and was undocked on 12 October 1993 at 17:59:06.[4]
It remained in orbit until 18 October 1993, when it was deorbited. The mission ending occurred at 00:22:14 UTC on 19 October 1993, when the VBK-Raduga 8 capsule landed.[3]

Progress M-19 (Russian: Прогресс M-19) was a Russian unmanned Progress cargo spacecraft, which was launched in 1993 to resupply the Mir space station.
Progress M-19M (Russian: Прогресс М-19М), identified by NASA as Progress 51P, is a Progress spacecraft used by Roskosmos to resupply the International Space Station during 2013. Progress M-19M was launched on a standard 2-day rendezvous profile towards the ISS. The 19th Progress-M 11F615A60 spacecraft to be launched, it had the serial number 419 and was built by RKK Energia.
Progress M-14M (Russian: Прогресс М-14М), identified by NASA as Progress 46P, is a Progress spacecraft which was used by Roskosmos to resupply the International Space Station during 2012. The fourteenth Progress-M 11F615A60 spacecraft, it had the serial number 414 and was built by RKK Energia. Upon its arrival in late January 2012, it delivered supplies to the Expedition 30 crew aboard the space station, where it remained docked until 19 April 2012.
Progress M-15 (Russian: Прогресс М-15) was a Russian uncrewed cargo spacecraft which was launched in 1992 to resupply the Mir space station. The thirty-third of sixty-four Progress spacecraft to visit Mir, it used the Progress-M 11F615A55 configuration, and had the serial number 215. It carried supplies including food, water and oxygen for the EO-12 crew aboard Mir, as well as equipment for conducting scientific research, and fuel for adjusting the station's orbit and performing manoeuvres. It also transported the Mak 2 satellite, which was deployed from Mir on 20 November. TORU manual docking system was first tested in this mission. Progress M-15 was launched at 17:19:41 GMT on 27 October 1992, atop a Soyuz-U2 carrier rocket flying from Site 31/6 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Following two days of free flight, it docked with the aft port of the Kvant-1 module at 17:19:41 GMT on 29 October. During the 97 days for which Progress M-15 was docked, Mir was in an orbit of around 396 by 399 kilometres (214 by 215 nmi), inclined at 51.6 degrees. Progress M-15 undocked from Mir at 00:44:53 GMT on 4 February 1993, however it remained in orbit to conduct the Znamya 2 experiment, and research into autonomous flight. It was deorbited on 7 February, and burned up during reentry over the Pacific Ocean at around 08:03:35 GMT.
Before the 1921 destruction of Tulsa’s Greenwood District, Black residents had created a remarkable center of business and community life. The district included stores, professional offices, entertainment venues and homes owned by Black citizens. Understanding Greenwood means learning what was built—not only what was burned.
