Besides Atlantis landing today, DCX flight number 8 occured. I
understand it landed a little too heavily.

The Helios 1A spy satellite also took off from Korou a few hours ago (it
was scheduled for 1623 UTC launch) on Ariane V75. Targetted for a 685 km
high, 98 degree orbit.

Video of the launch is on Bayern's 'Space Night' this evening, broadcast
from Astra.
