A heavy Ariane 5 will take the next ATV to the space station tomorrow night just before 2300 BST

Coverage on the arianespace.com website, and probably on 5W as well. :)

Any news on a definite live channel for the event?
 
Same for 10E both active.
 
Thanks guys, all up and running.
 
BTW - we changed the rules a few months ago - live links are fine except

to other forums
commercial sales operations (although links to our forum sponsors are fine) :)
 
Oversight on my part.Oops.
 
Hehe no problem - the new forum software tends to auto parse anything vaguely related to http! :D
 
Because this one is going to the ISS the ATV may be visible to the naked eye in NW Europe about half an hour after liftoff if its clear. Moving south east to south west.
 
Eight minutes to go.

Looking good
 
Also on arianespace.tv, much better audio if you are web bound!
 
Receiving fine on 7E, light touchpaper.
 
Beautiful launch :)

And as a bonus it was clear enough to see booster separation
 
And separation. Right on target
 
It left the pad quicker than i thought it would.
