Video: Soyuz MS-01 leaves the space station for landing

Recovering from an April failure, Russia successfully launched a Progress cargo ship early Friday loaded with more than three tons of supplies and equipment needed to replenish stockpiles aboard the International Space Station.

A corrective software patch has fixed a problem with a newly installed grapple fixture on one end of the International Space Station robot arm, NASA officials said Sunday. With the mechanism now fully operational, a re-planned spacewalk Monday to re-install a degraded unit has been called off.

This is the post-launch news briefing from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility held after the successful return to flight by the Orbital ATK Antares rocket that delivered the Cygnus cargo ship into space.
