Hi guys,

I think that tonight Ariane 5 ECA has shown again to be the most powerful orbiting "artifact" in the planet...

Don't you agree?

RNeuhaus: Thanks for the numbers. I didn't have time and energy to try to dig them up. Atlas 5 Heavy exists only on paper till a demonstration flight is funded, but the numbers should be good. Clearly Ariane 5 and the Heavy EELV's are comparable, but Delta-4 Heavy has a bit more "oomph"

Judging from the test flight pics.... wish I had a DVD of Boeing's test flight online video.... it's a booster with a serious "cool" look, for WHATEVER that counts!

Meanwhile... GO FALCON!

Well, there was a webcast archived and it runs for over an hour and a half, IIRC, and it's 200 megabytes. The quality certainly isn't DVD-like, though, and the framerate has been halved so it's not very smooth...
...but, you do have a point, it's one cool looking vehicle. Probably very loud, too!
