Supply Ship Approaches the Space Station |
| Explanation |
The crew [ http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/station/crew/exp9/ ] on board the International Space Station [ http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/station/index.html ] sometimes needs supplies. As the US Space Shuttle fleet [ http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/resources/orbiters/orbiters.html ] prepares to return to flight [ http://www.nasa.gov/news/highlights/returntoflight.html ], supplies usually now come from a robot Progress supply vessel [ http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/station/assembly/elements/progress/index.html ] launched from Kazakhstan [ http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/kz.html ]. Pictured above [ http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/images/station/crew-9/html/iss009e08847.html ], a Progress ship approaches the ISS [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap021208.html ] on May 27, delivering over 2,500 kilograms of food, water, fuel and other important items. The supply ship soon docked with the Zvezda Service Module [ http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/station/assembly/elements/sm/index.html ] while orbiting [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap010723.html ] the Earth over 300 kilometers over central Asia. |
