Congratulations to Odyssey[LAUNCH]
Watching the Odyssey launch live via satellite at Astrium with some of the Beagle team - left to right Dave Rowntree, Mike Rickett and John Thatcher (Astrium), Alex James, Colin Pillinger.
The launch was nervously watched by the Beagle 2 team as the orbiter is one of the ways our data can get back to Earth. After Odyssey the next launch to Mars will be Beagle 2 aboard ESA's Mars Express.
