ESA's fourth
Automated Transfer Vehicle, Albert Einstein, was launched into orbit on
5.6.2013 from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana. Europe's
autonomous supply ship will perform a series of manoeuvres to dock with
the International Space Station on 15 June.
The Ariane 5 rocket, operated by Arianespace, lifted off at 21:52:11 GMT (23:52:11 CEST, 18:52:11 local time) and delivered ATV-4 into the planned circular parking orbit at 260 km altitude about 64 minutes later. ATV then deployed its four power-generating solar wings and antenna boom.
