Starlyte Posted July 10, 2003 #1 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Europe's first mission to the Moon has been given the green light for launch on 28 August. The move was rubber stamped on Wednesday at a flight review at the European Space Agency's research centre in the Netherlands (Estec). Smart 1 is currently in storage there but will be flown to the Kourou spaceport in French Guiana in the next few days. "This is the go-ahead to pack the whole thing in a crate and send it to the launch site," says Manuel Grande, the leading British scientist on the project.
