ESA's ATV-4 Einstein Launches to the ISS
Launch of ESA’s ATV-4 Einstein, ArianeSpace
Marc’s note: Today’s launch went off without a hitch at 5:52 p.m. EDT (21:52 GMT).
The Automated Transfer Vehicle 4 or ‘Einstein’ is loaded with more than 7 tons of supplies for the International Space Station crew. ATV-4 was named by ESA in honor of the 20th century theoretical physicist, Albert Einstein. The Ariane 5 launched from Kourou, French Guiana.
Go, BIG AL!!
Seems odd to individually name single-use expendables.
