The European Space Agency's space-freighter, the Albert Einstein
ATV, has docked with the International Space Station delivering
crucial supplies.  The 20-tonne craft, which is carrying 2.5
tonnes of food, water, equipment and fuel for the six
inhabitants of the ISS, launched in 5 June on the back of an
Ariane 5 rocket from Europe's Kourou spaceport.  It docked onto
the back of the space station at 14:07 GMT on 15 June, and will
remain there for four months, giving the crew extra space to
work in, once its contents have been removed.  It'll also use
its booster rockets to nudge the ISS slightly higher into the
sky. The space station's orbit is not stable -- it drifts back
towards Earth over time -- and so it needs a push back into
place every so often.  In mid-October, when its four-month visit
is over, it'll be filled with trash and detached. Then, it will
fall back to Earth, burning up in the atmosphere.   Latest on
