Now to see what happens next. But NASA's Youtube feed was a bit annoying as they had three people talking at the same time, one English, and two French. Also, I wish they'd piped in the sound in high-def of the rocket itself taking off, just for the effect!
The images of the telescope separated from the last rocket stage were good!
They've come a long way from grainy vidicon images from the moon landings.

Were there fewer fools, knaves would starve. -- Anonymous
