Moscow - An unmanned supply ship burned up on re-entry over the Pacific Ocean Friday, a week after the spacecraft suffered a communications failure, the Russian space agency said.

"The Progress M-27M spacecraft ceased to exist at 05:04 Moscow time (0204 GMT) on 8 May 2015. It entered the atmosphere... over the central part of the Pacific Ocean," Roscosmos said in a statement.
