Two weeks after launching, the European Space Agency's Jules Verne Automated Transfer Vehicle is set to dock this week with the International Space Station.

The most critical maneuvers begin Monday. A series of engine firings will bring the cargo ship within 36 feet of the station before the ISS crew sends an abort message to line up the ship for its final approach on April 3.

The ATV will remain at the space station until early August.
