ISS010-E-19147 (2 March 2005) --- Backdropped by the blackness of space and Earth’s horizon, an unpiloted Progress supply vehicle approaches the International Space Station (ISS). The Progress 17 resupply craft launched at 1:09 p.m. (CST) on February 28, 2005 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan to deliver two tons of supplies, food, water, fuel and equipment to the Expedition 10 crewmembers onboard the Station.
