Great image of ATV backing off...
The Escape command ends today's Demonstration Day 2. ATV is now quite some distance from ISS. 72 hours of phasing will now transfer Jules Verne ATV to the S-1/2 point, 39 km behind the International Space Station, ready for the first rendezvous and docking attempt on Thursday.
This screenshot from NASA TV shows ATV when it had withdrawn a considerable distance from the ISS, at about 19:02 CEST.
