Space freighter - Russia

The Progress space freighter ascends after blasting off from its launch pad at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan October 30, 2011. Russia launched its first unmanned space flight to supply the International Space Station Sunday since an August crash left a half-sized crew on the orbital outpost and raised concerns over Moscow's role as the sole space flight provider.
