A cargo spacecraft has arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) to deliver food, fuel and other supplies for those onboard.

The ISS is currently home to the Expedition 71 crew, and two Nasa astronauts, Butch Wilmore and Suni William, who are stuck on the station due to safety concerns over the Boeing Starliner capsule meant to take them home.

The unpiloted Progress 89 spacecraft delivered about three tons of supplies.

It will remain docked for approximately six months before departing for re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere to dispose of trash, Nasa said.
