  1. ah, yes... n2o4/udmh... they are working on a replacement (angara) though... first launch is planned for 2013 - at least launch of the core, cause it will have modular design (is planned to be able to fly in configuration with 1, 3 and 5 cores - and perhaps even 7 later for 45t launcher)...
  2. yeah, it went well... not flawless, but well... the launch is planned for 30.4. (1722gmt)... somewhere around 12th, the frr (flight readiness review) will be performed... then we will know if they will really launch... and iirc, the launch window is instantaneous and only once in 3 day... but in april there is more than spacex cots... a progress launch to iss, a proton launch, an atlas v launch, one indian launch and the cots... and then one soyuz undocking and landing edit: oh, and the best one... the north korea has a rocket launch planned in the middle of april
  3. oh, and i forgot on wednesday (28.3.) the atv will dock to the station...
  4. well, imo, proton is one of the best looking launchers... as someone wrote on facebook, it looks the way a launcher is supposed to btw: the next launches are delta iv launch for nro (us government) on thursday (29.3.), once again proton for russian government on friday (30.3.) and chinese cz-3b with a comm sat for a hong kong company on saturday (31.3.)... we gonna get a good and busy week
  5. and success (after more than 15hrs)
  6. proton launch today... 1210gmt... broadcasts on http://tsenki.com/en/ and http://www.ilslaunch.com/
  7. ariane 5 with atv-3 on the pad: http://www.spaceflightnow.com/ariane/va205/rollout/
  8. in fact, it is not the same but for the purpose of this thread, we can consider it as such
  9. and the atv launch is moved to the end of march...
  10. no - it depends on the particular launch... russian launches are usually broadcasted on tsenki.com/en (and nasa tv, if it is iss related launch - ie. soyuz and progress spacecrafts)... then nasa launches (iss related, or science related) are streamed on nasa tv... ula launches on ulalaunch.com... european (esa) launches are streamed on arianespace.tv (arianespace.com)... chinese launches usually are not streamed (and if they are, it is broadcasted on chinese television - cctv.cn/cntv.cn) some of the launches are streamed on spaceflightnow.com (ustream.com)... all launches (us, russian, esa, chinese, japan, indian) are text covered on nasaspaceflight.com (with links to live video, insiders info and more sources if available - as live countdown, etc)
  11. ... will be after all 3 centaur burns
  12. and countdown, if anyone is interested... http://countdown.ksc.nasa.gov/elv/index-ae.html
  13. for the atlas one there will definitely be several streams... eg. spaceflightnow.com, then on ula website too... for the chinese launch i am not so sure as it is a governmental launch... they broadcasted only some of their launches (commercial, or tiangong launch for example)
  14. atlas launch today... 2215utc... the weather at 60% and chinese cz-3c launch with beidou today as well... 1612utc
  15. + komarov, dobrovolski, patsayev, volkov (and bondarenko and vozovikov)
  16. yes, it will be interesting... of course there will be some rescheduling as every year...
  17. related to challenger... sts had one big problem... no las... and good info about challenger are from richard feynman (he was a member of the investigating commitee)... including his addendum to the official report...
  18. and according to the last info on nasa website, dragon will launch on april 30th of course, this can be moved to the right quite easily
  19. on 24th feb there will be a chinese launch with beidou sattelite as well...
  20. iirc, they dont cover russian, esa, chinese, japan or indian commercial or government launches if they are not related to iss... but i am not sure at the moment... there is quite a lot of launches around the world every year (84 launches last year)...
  21. i think this is inspired by soyuz tma-22 launch from nov last year, hehe http://youtu.be/oYCIeeqCTnM
  22. atlas v (muos-1) start is planned on 24th feb
