Scientific paper

We present the status of the Virgo detector which is approaching its nominal sensitivity to detect gravitational waves predicted by the General Relativity. The commissioning of Virgo in its final configuration started in 2003. The recent progresses performed on the detector are detailed. We report also on the different data analysis activities carried out by the groups of the Virgo Collaboration. We briefly mention the short term planning of the Virgo commissioning and conclude this article with the different research and development programs to improve the sensitivity of the Virgo detector in the following 10 years.
