T' ISS Progress 38 cargo resupply ship successfully docked t' t' aft end o' t' International Space Station's Zvezda service module at 9:17 am PDT Sunday. T' dockin' be executed flawlessly by Progress' Kurs automated rendezvous system. It launched from t' Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on June 30. An attempted dockin' Friday, July 2, me bucko, was aborted when telemetry betwixt t' Progress and t' space station was lost about 25 minutes before its planned docking. Arrr! T' most likely cause o' Friday's aborted dockin' was traced t' t' activation o' t' TORU 'Klest' TV transmitter, which created interference with TORU itself, causin' a loss o' t' TORU command link betwixt Progress and t' International Space Station that triggered t' abort o' t' Progress docking. Begad! TORU was nay activated for today's docking. T' TORU TV system is designed t' provide a view o' Zvezda's dockin' target t' station Commander Alexander Skvorstov, if he had t' operate a joystick in t' service module t' dock Progress manually.
