An unpiloted Progress cargo carrier arrived at the International Space Stations Pirs Docking Compartment at 7:28 a.m. EST Sunday after a four day flight from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

The Progress docked using the backup TORU manual system. Shortly after launch, one of two proximity antennas of the Kurs automated docking system failed to deploy. Mission Control Moscow successfully commanded deployment of the antenna about three hours later, but Flight Engineer Yury Lonchakov used the TORU system to bring the Progress to its docking port.

The station's 31st Progress unpiloted spacecraft brings to the orbiting laboratory more than 1,800 pounds of propellant, more than 100 pounds of oxygen and air, more than 450 pounds of water and nearly 3,000 pounds of dry cargo. Total cargo weight is 5,342 pounds.
