The Progress M-07M cargo spacecraft docked as planned with the International Space Station on Sunday, two days after it was launched from Kazakhstan.
The docking took place at 11:58 GMT, when the ISS was over western Mongolia. The rendezvous was fully automated with no intervention required of the space station crew.
The freighter carried more than 2 tons of equipment, fuel, oxygen, food and water to the station, as well as census forms for the Russian cosmonauts on board. They are expected to be among the first Russian citizens to complete the questionnaires.
The previous Russian census was taken in 2002.
