G'day all,

Today, at 20:26 GMT (in about three ours after this post), Discovery space shuttle will (unless another postponement becasue of the weather conditions) launch and dock with the ISS on the 4th of July.

The interesting thing is, you can watch the launch from the internet, live! NASA TV broadcasts the whole launch and the mission coverage on the internet:

Cheers.

PS: Actually the launch was scheduled for yesterday initially and it was postponed by 1 day due to weather conditions. Let's hope it will happen today!
