Live transmission of ATV docking with the ISS today

Post by mikkelbo » Thu Apr 03, 2008 10:34 am

Hi guys,

I meant to say at the club meeting last night but somehow I forgot :(

The ATV will dock with the ISS today at 14:41 UT (15:41 local Irish time). You can follow the show live on the Internet: http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/i ... ram=public

The company I work for has delivered and tested critical (so called Category A) software for the actual landing sequence, so I am very excited :).

Enjoy the show!
