1. A method of filling a liquid hydrogen liquid hydrogen tank, the method comprising the steps of:
a first transferring step of a first amount of liquid hydrogen into the liquid hydrogen liquid hydrogen tank from a first source of liquid hydrogen comprising a hydrogen liquefier, the first amount of liquid hydrogen being provided in order to lower a temperature and a pressure in the liquid hydrogen liquid hydrogen tank; and
a second transferring step of a second amount of liquid hydrogen into the liquid hydrogen liquid hydrogen tank from a second source of liquid hydrogen comprising a liquid hydrogen storage facility, in which the first amount of liquid hydrogen is transferred directly from the hydrogen liquefier into the liquid hydrogen liquid hydrogen tank and the second amount of liquid hydrogen is transferred into the liquid hydrogen liquid hydrogen tank by pressure difference between the liquid hydrogen storage facility and the liquid hydrogen liquid hydrogen tank.
