Russian Soyuz blasts off on resupply run to ISS
A Russian Soyuz booster blasts off from a snow-covered launch pad in Kazakhstan to deliver supplies to the International Space Station (ISS).
Russian and American flight controllers monitored the booster, which took off from Baikonur Cosmodrome at about 06:00 GMT. The unmanned cargo spacecraft will deliver 2.9 tons of food, fuel, and supplies to the ISS.
It left Earth after the arrival of a commercial SpaceX at the research complex. The payload was en route for some eight minutes and went into three successful stages of separation during the expedition before going into preliminary orbit.
The cargo was grappled by crew members on board the orbital outpost at 11 a.m GMT. It will soon depart and burn up in Earth’s atmosphere to make way for new Russian logistics missions.
