A highly successful launch at 2142 UTC with the Radcom and Horizons satellite being deployed at T plus 28 minutes and T plus 32 respectively. Looking forward to the next launch from Kourou which will be the ATV servicer for the ISS. That has exciting implications for us in this region but that's another story which I will tell closer to the time!
