European rocket to Mars launched Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

Yay! Today from Baikonur a rocket, due to arrive in December, was launched at Mars. I can only hope that this one doesn't end the same way last Mars expiditions did - just why do they always have to fail?

We have one in Sweden, but Baikonour is probably better for this purpose. Or perhaps it's jointly financed, what do I know?

Pretty poor comeback.

Anyway, quick check of the flight logs:

Last launch was 9th of April 2003. Successful launch.

Next scheduled launch is 11th of June 2003.

"When will the Chinese launch?"

Sorry, misunderstood your question. The Chinese will mostly lunch between 1 PM and 3 PM
