Managed to see this one. Nice to see a launch that doesn't blow up.

Two more for the diary this week....

Wed 22nd 22:02BST Baikonur - Soyuz 43S to ISS

Thurs 23rd 01:07 - 01:52BST from Cape Canaveral - Delta 4 with WGS7 military comsat

[MartG]

United Launch Alliance has delayed the Delta 4 launch 24 hours to Thursday, at 8:07 p.m. EDT. High winds at the launch pad have delayed preparations sufficiently that they can't be ready for the required launch window.

Soyuz launch still going ahead - live video here https://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html

The Indians are launching a satellite very shortly. Finding a live link was difficult but I have this one -

Proton M today with a new Inmarsat KA-Band communications satellite on board.

Last launch didn't go so well so I expect there will be a fair few clenched buttocks in mission control today

Probably better for my career prospects if this does go well as the company I work for is developing a "broadband" Internet system for aircraft that will use these satellites.

[Eric Mc]

Watching - thanks. Protons are always worth watching.

[Eric Mc]

Pity the cameraman was pants.

[callmedave]

Have i missed it?

[Eric Mc]

Yes - all 20 seconds of the launch footage.

[C0ffin D0dger]

Yeah, didn't really go to town with the filming did they. I'm sure I watched another Inmarsat launch, albeit quite some time ago, where there was footage from on-board the actual rocket so you could see the stages separate etc.

Never mind, at least it didn't blow up, though that would have made it a bit more interesting

Proton due off at 8
