Russian Progress 88 cargo ship docks at ISS carrying tons of fresh supplies

On Saturday morning, the International Space Station received a delivery of fresh supplies from a robotic Russian cargo craft just in time for the upcoming launch of a Boeing Starliner spacecraft carrying two astronauts.

The Roscosmos Progress 88 freighter successfully docked with the station’s Poisk module at 7:43 a.m. EDT after launching from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan two days earlier.

The smooth automated docking, overseen by the station’s Expedition 71 crew, occurred without issue, with Russian cosmonauts ready to intervene if needed.

Progress 88, loaded with approximately 2.7 tons of fuel, food, and essential supplies, has docked with the ISS, Space.com has reported.
