      Hi!
      I will not go to Baikonur launch base when Tim will set off to space, but we will be following him from the Columbus Control Centre in Munich.

      We will be there also when he reaches the space station and then we will “stay with him” for all the 6 months of his mission, seeing him on the video with the cameras inside the ISS and talking with him when he will do scientific experiments inside Columbus!
      Still 2 months to go, I really look forward to this!

      Hey 299trn28!!

      I’m still going to be in Antarctica when he sets off but I am certainly looking forward to watching it!

      Are you going to watch the launch?
