Title: Jules Verne - ATV/ISS Docking live on NASA TV Post by: Brian Finney on 29-Mar-2008 08:20:41 GMT Hi All,
This is a first docking and shows that ESA leads the world in automated docking. This expertise should prove useful for recovering satellites in space, building structures in space etc without exposing humans to risk and in preparing space bases in advance of human occupation. NASA TV will be showing live the demonstration approach of Jules Verne to within 36ft of ISS to confirm its ability and the actual docking at the times below. Monday 31 March 3.00pm onwards for the demonstration Thursday 3 April 12.00pm (noon) with the actual docking programmed for 3.38pm To get NASA TV on your computer www.nasa.gov/ntv Brian
