This image may not be used to state or imply ESA endorsement of any company or product Timothy Peake, astronaut training. British ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Timothy Peake (born 1972, at right) in generic robotics training. He is being trained by Lionel Ferra (left), an ATV (Automated Transfer Vehicle) instructor at the European Astronaut Centre (EAC), in Cologne, Germany, during 2010. The ATV spacecraft are unmanned resupply vehicles that launch and dock automatically with the International Space Station (ISS), but can be controlled by the ISS crew if needed. Peake is scheduled to join Expedition 46 to the ISS, launching in November or December 2015.
