Progress docks with ISS
Posted: Sun, Sep 12, 2010, 2:37 PM ET (1837 GMT)
A Progress spacecraft carrying nearly 2.5 tons of supplies docked with the International Space Station on Sunday morning. The Progress M-07M spacecraft, designated Progress 39 by NASA, docked with the aft port of the Zvezda module at 7:58 am EDT (1158 GMT) Sunday, two days after its launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The docking took place automatically, using the Kurs system, without incident. The launch and docking took place two days later than originally planned when poor weather delayed the launch of the mission from Baikonur.
