Postponement of GIOVE-A launch
 
16 December 2005
An anomaly has been detected in the ground station network for the satellite GIOVE-A during preparations for launch. The necessary re-configuration and validation are currently predicted to lead to a delay of at least two days for this launch, originally scheduled to take place on 26 December.
