Posted: Sat, Jan 31, 2004, 8:57 PM ET (0157 GMT)
A Progress cargo spacecraft docked with the International Space Station on Saturday carrying supplies for the station's two-man crew. The Progress M1-11 spacecraft, on mission ISS 13P, docked with the Zvezda module of ISS at 8:13 am EST (1313 GMT). No problems were reported with the docking, which took place in automatic mode. The Progress is carrying nearly two and a half tons of food, water, propellant, and other supplies for the station, including a hose for the window in the Destiny module that will replace one that caused a small air leak on the station earlier this month. The Progress is also carrying two dummies provided by Russian scientists to test the effects of radiation on the human body.
