Anik, I'd like a little explanation about the cargo of this vehicle :
http://www.mcc.rsa.ru/progress_m02m.htmIf I understand well, there is 250kg of propellants for refueling the ISS and 870kg for the craft's engines ?
Second question : usually, there is also some air in the cargo. Why there is no air in this craft ?
Thank you very much for clarification ! :-)

Nope.
- 870 kg of propellants in tanks of the Refueling System (SD).
- 880 kg of propellants in tanks of the Integrated Propulsion System (KDU), 250 kg of which can be used for ISS needs.
Why there is no air in this craft?
No necessity in air at station, obviously. ISS atmosphere will be replenished by oxygen. There is no potable water in this Progress also, because Space Shuttle deliver it.

This is based - I guess - on Roskosmos cargo summary :
http://www.roscosmos.ru/NewsDoSele.asp?NEWSID=6169.
But if you make the sum, you'll find a wrong result :
1338 + 51 + 880 + 870 is not equal to 2259 !

1338 + 51 + 870 = 2259 kg
+ 250 kg of propellants for ISS
total cargo = 2509 kg (Progress M-01M - 2676 kg!)
