The Jules Verne, the first fully automatic re-supply spacecraft ever built, was launched on March 9, 2008, by an Adriane 5 launch vehicle from the Guiana Space Center in Kourou, French Guiana.
It successfully docked, for the first time, with the ISS on April 3, 2008, at 1445 UTC.
The ATV is about 32 feet (10 meters) in length, with a diameter of abaout 14.7 feet (4.5 meters).
The cargo ship re-supplies the crew onboard the ISS with food, new equipment, oxygen, clothes, rocket fuel, and other necessities.
It holds about three times as much cargo as the Russian Progress-M cargo ship.
The website of the ESA's ATV program is found at: "ATV Jules Verne."
The news report from ESA about the re-boost maneuver for Jules Verne is found at the ESA's website "Jules Verne boosts ISS orbit."
