An unpiloted Russian resupply spacecraft will arrive at the International Space Station next week and the U.S. space agency plans to televise the event live.

The Progress 30 spacecraft is to automatically dock to the aft port of the space station's Zvezda service module at 5:01 EDT on Sept. 12. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said its TV coverage will begin at 3:30 p.m. with commentary and available downlink television.

NASA said the cargo ship will deliver more than two tons of supplies for the station's three crew members. The Progress is scheduled to be launched next Wednesday from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. NASA TV will not broadcast the launch.
