STS-80 Launch




Hi Doc,
could you provide with some news about the current space-shuttle mission?
Are there any feeds of the launch in Europe?
Frederic Muller, F-Forbach

Dr.Dish:
Feeds can be found on INTELSAT K (analogue and digtal). If you have suitable
equipment, try REUTERS on 11.566V (5.632 / 3/4)

From Hearsat I got the following data on the mission:
