 On June 14, between 14:32 to 15:17
 utc, a falcon 9 will launch, the Eutelsat 117 geo sat, which
 will be placed at 117 degrees West. This satellite will be
 used as part of the faa waas system, which is used by your
 gps receiver to improve the positional data it gives, for
 those who live in North/south america.
 
 Also onboard is ABS 2A, which will be placed at 75 degrees
 East.
