MOSCOW, October 27 (RIA Novosti) - Work on the International Space Station returned to normal Friday after a docking problem with a Russian cargo ship was resolved, the Russian Space Agency said.

"The parameters of the orbit, the parameters of the atmosphere and the state of on-board systems in the Russian ISS segment are back to normal," agency spokesman Igor Panarin said.

On Thursday, the Progress M-58 cargo spacecraft, bringing food, water and fuel to the crew of the orbital space station, failed to link properly with the orbital station due to a docking antenna, which had not retracted correctly.
