There were indications that ProSEDS http://www.spacetransportation.com/proseds/ would be launched as a secondary payload on the Delta launch carrying GPS satellite 2r-12 originally slated for June 4, now postponed to June 9. However I can find nothing to confirm that ProSEDS will still be on board, nor can I find anything to indicate definitely otherwise. Can anyone locate any reliable and up to date information on ProSEDS launch date, particularly whether or not it will be on this launch? It appears to be an interesting object, described on one site as being at the same height as ISS (do we know inclination? - the nature of the experiment suggests this could also be similar to ISS,) and it seems may have some interesting implications in relation to decay prediction. Last post in here on this subject appears to be http://satobs.org/seesat/Mar-2003/0066.html - a continuing story of delays with launch of this object.
