Jules Verne ATV docks with ISS

Posted by: delusional in News, Space

The European Space Agency’s Jules Verne ATV has successfully docked with the International Space Station.

The automated docking procedure seemed to run without a hitch and the ATV hard docked to the station.

Work is now underway to connect up electrical, data and ancilliary systems prior to opening the hatch on the 20 tonne ATV which is carrying 9 tonnes food, water, fuel and general stores for the ISS.
