National Aeronautics and Space Administration controllers in Houston said the Progress 29 Russian spacecraft carrying a shipment of food, fuel and supplies is to automatically dock with the ISS at 5:37 p.m. EDT, May 16. NASA-TV coverage of the arrival will begin at 4 p.m. EDT that day with commentary and available downlink television. The cargo ship, carrying more than 2 tons of supplies for the three space station crew members, is to be launched next Wednesday from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
