Russian space experts agreed that the Mir space station was in fine condition to continue orbiting Earth, and the Russian government extended the station's time in space indefinitely, after the Netherlands-based MirCorp agreed to fund a new mission. Russia's council of space engineers, known as the Council of Chief Designers, authorized plans to launch a Progress cargo spacecraft, in the middle of October, to deliver fuel and equipment to Mir.
