Russia’s space problems. Progress ship can not moor – Polish Radio

The Russian space agency Roskosmos said on Tuesday that, due to technical problems had to be postponed transport mooring Progress spacecraft to the International Space Station (ISS).
Progress M-27 was launched on Tuesday from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Six hours later, he had to get to the ISS.

The Russian media say that he could not open the mooring system antennas called “Course”.

Experts say that if you can not run the antennas , the berthing maneuver can be performed manually from the deck of the ISS. Previously, however, experts have to explain how severe the problem is.

ISS Progress is carrying 2.5 tons of cargo, including food.
