Nautilus (Verne) sea monster not yet known to science. To submerge deeply in a short time, "Nautilus" uses a technique called "hydroplaning", in which the vessel dives down at a steep angle. "Nautilus" supports a crew that gathers and farms food from the sea. "Nautilus" includes a galley for preparing these foods, which includes a machine that makes drinking water from seawater through distillation.

"Nautilus" is capable of extended voyages without refuelling or
Jules Verne ATV space station at a distance of , despite a minor anomaly with the electronic systems controlling the spacecraft's engines. "Jules Verne" started its approach to the ISS at 14:19 UTC. At 15:57, it reached the S hold point and waited there for 90 minutes to conduct tests. The ISS crew then commanded the ATV to conduct hold and retreat manoeuvres. At 17:30, the ATV was commanded to perform an escape manoeuvre, propelling it away from the station. During Demo-Day 2, "Jules Verne" closed in to within of the International Space Station, after which the ISS crew simulated an abort. All
