    Lol Apogee,
    countdown clock reached Zero,but solid rocket boosters did not receive message it seems and did not ignite.

    rolling it back to the FAB(cheek of them almost calling them it the NASA VAB;))

    nice touch that Nelson Mandella's signature is on 'New Dawn'

    roll back to the FAB anounced so soon,they must consider the Launch abort serious?

    No 24 hour turnaround.

    Arianespace seem confident that the root cause of the launch abort is now repaired.
    The two Satellites are now due for launch at 22.37 UTC Summertime tonight.
    the launch window lasts until 22.41.
    coverage begins at 22.17 at the same link above.
    best of luck to them!
