[b]Progress M-07M docks to station[/b] The 39th ISS Progress resupply vehicle docked to the aft port of the Zvezda service module on the International Space Station at 7:58 a.m. EDT Sunday using the Kurs automated rendezvous system. Progress M-07M brings to the orbiting complex 1,918 pounds of propellant, 110 pounds of oxygen, 375 pounds of water and 2,645 pounds of spare parts, experiment hardware and other supplies for the station's six crew members. After conducting leak checks at the docking interface and opening the hatch to the resupply vehicle, the crew members will begin the long process of inventorying and unloading the cargo. Once emptied, Progress 39 will be filled with trash and station discards and deorbited to burn in the Earth's atmosphere like its predecessors.
