Soon after entering orbit, Russia's remote supply spacecraft Progress 59 spins out of control, jepordizing a full cargo of supplies.

No, this craft contains stuff that's useful, in stark contrast to Congress.

The "good" news is that it is in a low orbit that is no where near the ISS.
The "Not-So-Good" news is that the orbit is decaying rapidly and they expect reentry in 7 to 10 days.
