NASA dixit:

“The unpiloted Russian Progress 51 cargo craft linked up to the International Space Station April 26, automatically docking to the aft port of the Zvezda Service Module after a flawless two-day rendezvous. Loaded with more than three tons of food, fuel, supplies and experiment hardware, the new Progress freighter launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan April 24, executing a pre-programmed series of engine firings over the next two days to reach the station for its docking. The Progress will remain at the station until mid-June when it will undock and deorbited to burn up in the Earth\’s atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean.”
