A Russian Soyuz space rocket, bound for the International Space Station, has launched successfully from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstann.
The Progress capsule is on a mission to deliver a cargo ship loaded with food, water and equipment to the satellite,
The liftoff came five days after an unmanned US SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket exploded after launch from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida.

Solar Impulse, the aeroplane that is powered only by the sun, has landed in Hawaii after making a historic 8,000km flight across the Pacific from Japan.
Pilot Andre Borschberg brought the vehicle gently down onto the runway at Kalaeloa Airport just before 06:00 local time (16:00 GMT; 17:00 BST).
The distance covered and the time spent in the air - 118 hours - are records for manned, solar-powered flight.
The duration is also an absolute record for a solo, un-refuelled journey.
And Shell is expected to begin drilling for oil in the Arctic within the next two weeks.
