0503 GMT Wednesday.

This latest Progress carries 3,042 pounds of dry cargo, 926 pounds of
water, 110 pounds of oxygen and air and 1,521 pounds of propellant.
In addition to the usual assortment of food, hardware and experiments,

life support systems and new cooling pumps for American spacewalk suits.
Also aboard are supplies and clothing for the Expedition 10 crew of
commander Leroy Chiao and flight engineer Salizhan Sharipov. The two men
are scheduled to ride a Soyuz capsule to the station in October,
replacing Padalka and Fincke.
