ATV-4, Albert Einstein, is under construction at the Astrium facility in Bremen, German, and is schedule to be shipped to Kourou, French Guiana, in mid-August for the 15-day voyage across the Atlantic.

Earlier this week a team of ESA engineers and trainers were in Bremen to review progress; thanks to ESA’s L. Ferra for some great, ‘on the scene’ photos from deep inside ATV-4.
