Progress cargo craft blasts off for International Space Station

A Progress cargo craft blasted off on a resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS). The Progress 63 spaceship launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, lighting up the night sky as its engine started. Carrying food, fuel and supplies, Progress 63 is expected to dock at the space station on Saturday. Progress 63 replaces the resupply ship Progress 61, which undocked from the ISS loaded with trash. Progress 61 is set to burn up over the Pacific Ocean tomorrow.
