Progress M-45 ({{langx|ru|Прогресс М-45|italic=yes}}), identified by NASA as Progress 5P, was a Progress spacecraft used to resupply the International Space Station. It was a Progress-M 11F615A55 spacecraft, with the serial number 245.{{cite web|url=http://planet4589.org/space/log/launchlog.txt|title=Launch Log|last=McDowell|first=Jonathan |author-link=Jonathan McDowell|publisher=Jonathan's Space Page|access-date=2009-06-06}}
Launch
Progress M-45 was launched by a Soyuz-U carrier rocket from Site 1/5 at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Launch occurred at 09:23:54 UTC on 21 August 2001.
Docking
The spacecraft docked with the aft port of the Zvezda module at 09:51:32 UTC on 23 August 2001.{{cite web |url=http://space.kursknet.ru/cosmos/english/cargoes/prm45.sht|first=Alexander|last=Anikeev|publisher=Manned Astronautics - Figures and Facts|title=Cargo spacecraft "Progress M-45"|access-date=2009-06-06|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071018201901/http://space.kursknet.ru/cosmos/english/cargoes/prm45.sht|archive-date=2007-10-18}}{{cite web |url=http://www.astronautix.com/craft/proressm.htm|title=Progress M|last=Wade|first=Mark|publisher=Encyclopedia Astronautica|access-date=2009-06-06|url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090710175743/http://www.astronautix.com/craft/proressm.htm|archive-date=2009-07-10}}
It remained docked for 91 days before undocking at 16:12:01 UTC on 22 November 2001 to make way for Progress M1-7.{{cite web |url=http://www.russianspaceweb.com/progress.html|title=Progress cargo ship|last=Zak|first=Anatoly|publisher=RussianSpaceWeb|access-date=2009-06-06}} It left debris on the docking port which prevented Progress M1-7 from achieving a hard dock until it was removed during an EVA on 3 December 2001. Progress M-45 was deorbited at 20:48:00 UTC on the same day that it undocked. The spacecraft burned up in the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean, with any remaining debris landing in the ocean at around 21:35:23 UTC.{{cite web |url=http://www.planet4589.org/space/log/satcat.txt|title=Satellite Catalog|last=McDowell|first=Jonathan|publisher=Jonathan's Space Page|access-date=2009-06-06}}
Progress M-45 carried supplies to the International Space Station, including food, water and oxygen for the crew and equipment for conducting scientific research.
