The Vega rocket has been cleared for launch overnight with Europe's LISA Pathfinder technology demo mission, a probe heading to a station a million miles from Earth to test systems for a future gravitational wave observatory. Liftoff from French Guiana is set for 0404 GMT Thursday (11:04 p.m. EST Wednesday). There are no amateur payloads on this launch; enjoy the rocket ...
Video will be webstreamed on www.arianespace.tv starting 20 minutes prior to launch.
Spaceflightnow.com says they'll also cover the launch at: http://spaceflightnow.com/2015/12/02/vv06-mission-status-center/ and they also provide blog updates during the preparations for launch.
Have fun ...
