It is about time to revive this thread. This contest looks like fun; I bet there are some mages here who would like to participate.

The general press are talking about a wake-up time of about 10:00 UTC Monday.
However this is a little misleading, as the first confirmation signal will not arrive at Earth until between 17:30 and 18:30 UTC. |

So it's going to be a few hours between the countdown clock on the main page ticking to zero and getting the signal back. Might not have to stay up overnight.
Also, welcome back general, it's been a long time since you posted on here! |

This streaming link seems more reliable than the ESA website:
http://www.livestream.com/eurospaceagency First glimpse of C-G might come in March, from 100,000 KM away: http://www.astrium.eads.net/en/news2/time-...up-rosetta.html Should be fully awake (along with me!). Signal traveling now hopefully... Just a few more minutes. Saw a screen where it will show up. Just noise for now. |
