[] Those of you with TVRO systems, circle Sept. 8 on your calenders. In the morning, (probably around 7:00 am Eastern), there will be a countdown demonstration test and on pad abort for the STS-26 crew. They've been broadcast in the past, so expect video from this one. NASA Select TV is on Satcom F2, xpndr 13. Also on Sept. 8 is the next Arianne launch. Expect a launch a month for the next year. This may be seen on Spacenet 1, most likley at about 7:00 PM eastern (video should start about an hour earlier). They are broadcast in NTSC video. On September 24 at about 3:00 AM Pacific is an Atlas-NOAA launch from Vandenburg which should be carried on Select. Happy viewing. -- *** mike (starship janitor) smithwick *** "You can fool some of the people all of the time, or all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool Mom".
