NEW UDATE: 15-NOV-2005, 4:54 PM -
UPDATE: 3:43PM PST - The launch has been postponed due to a "problem encountered during final preparations".
So at 3:45PM PST today the Boeing built Spaceway satellite is scheduled to launch. It will be the latest of the Boeing 702 family to take up residence in earth's orbit. The image below is a what the sucker looks like. The reason I bring it up is that they will be broadcasting the launch on DirecTV channel 399 as well as on the Ariane Space website and watching a rocket launch is cool.
