Owing to a technical glitch, yesterday’s issue (25 September 2008) contained an outdated statement by Eurockot regarding the launch of GOCE, which was previously scheduled for September but is now delayed until October at least. In fact, no new launch date has been set yet. The incorrect article has been removed from the archive. Sorry for any confusion.
