A cargo spacecraft has successfully arrived at the International Space Station (ISS), delivering essential supplies such as food and fuel.
The unpiloted Progress 89 spacecraft, launched by Russian Roscosmos, brought approximately three tons of supplies to the ISS.
Video Shows Live Coverage
The live video appears to show a small spacecraft, from Roscosmos, carrying food and other essential items nearing the ISS.
The spacecraft referred to as “Progress” was seen through the external cameras of the ISS, slowly nearing the station where the crew waited.
The spacecraft will remain docked to the station for around six months before re-entering Earth’s atmosphere, where it will dispose of trash collected by the crew.
Astronauts Unable To Return
Currently, the ISS is home to the Expedition 71 crew, which includes NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams.
Both astronauts are currently unable to return to Earth due to safety concerns regarding the Boeing Starliner capsule that was originally planned for their return.
