New launch date for European gravity satellite

Submit on Wednesday, May 28th, 2008 06:00

A new launch date has been set for GOCE. The change of date is due to precautionary measures taken after the malfunction of an upper-stage section of a Russian Proton launcher. Now confirmed not to affect GOCE’s Rokot launcher, the most advanced gravity mission to date is scheduled for lift-off on 10 September 2008.
