A Russian cargo spacecraft has arrived at the International Space Station (ISS), wrapping up a brief orbital chase.

The robotic Progress 75 vehicle docked with the orbiting lab at 1:12 a.m. EDT (0512 GMT) today (April 25), less than 3.5 hours after launching atop a Russian Soyuz rocket from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

The rendezvous occurred when both craft were flying about 260 miles (418 kilometers) over northwest China, NASA officials said.
