Those of you with TVRO systems, circle Sept. 8 on your calenders.
In the morning, (probably around 7:00 am Eastern), there will be a
countdown demonstration test and on pad abort for the STS-26 crew. 
They've been broadcast in the past, so expect video from this one.
NASA Select TV is on Satcom F2, xpndr 13.

Also on Sept. 8 is the next Arianne launch. Expect a launch a month for
the next year. This may be seen on Spacenet 1, most likley at about
7:00 PM eastern (video should start about an hour earlier). They are
broadcast in NTSC video.

On September 24 at about 3:00 AM Pacific is an Atlas-NOAA launch from
Vandenburg which should be carried on Select.

Happy viewing.
