Jules Verne ATV fuelling operations get underway at Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana. The month-long delicate fuelling operations, which have started in early January at the Kourou launch centre's giant S5 integration building, marks the irreversible process towards a launch of the Jules Verne ATV in the second half of February.
