Hi all,
Not seen anything posted but apologies if I have missed the  information.
The launch of  Soyuz TMA 03M to the ISS was I am pleased to advise was  
successfully carried out from
Baikonur Cosmodrone, Kazakhstan -.  December 21st at 1316 GMT.
The crew members are expected to stay at the International space Station  
for about 6 months according to 
plans.  Quite a number of very interesting activities including  education 
as a key theme.
Trust all goes well for the docking in a few days time - quite a  Christmas 
present for the existing crew members.
Further information can be viewed at the NASA Mission Status  Centre.
