Summary

DescriptionATV-2 launch from ISS.jpg	English: A view of ATV-2 Johannes Kepler as seen from the International Space Station during its launch aboard an Ariane 5 ES-ATV launch vehicle on 16 February 2011. The Expedition 26 crew member aboard the International Space Station who snapped this photograph of the Ariane 5 rocket, barely visible in the far background, just after lift off from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, and the rest of the crew have a special interest in the occurrence. ESA's second Automated Transfer Vehicle, Johannes Kepler, was just a short time earlier (21:50 GMT or 18:50 Kourou time on Feb. 16, 2011) launched toward its low orbit destination and eventual link-up with the ISS. The unmanned supply ship is planned to deliver critical supplies and reboost the space station during its almost four-month mission. The elbow of Canadarm2 is in the foreground.
