Astra 2E News Update on Proton rocket launch
Provisional launch date - 30/09/2013
News from Paris — After the unfortunate accident on July 2nd that resulted in a proton rocket and $220 Million pay load going up in smoke, both Russian and Kazakh Governments have decided that after carrying out discussions and a review of safety and launch procedures with Proton's executives have given the go ahead to launch on the 30th September.
Officials from Khrunichev Space Center in Moscow have confirmed this new launch date, this news has been welcomed by Directors of SES Astra who are under pressure to bring Astra 2E in to service.
Residents on the Spanish Costa del Sol such as Albert & Diane from Mijas said "This is not good News for us! When the last rocket exploded we took a sigh of relief as we are told that the new signal is not going to be strong enough, we are hoping that BBC1HD and ITVHD will be strong enough but this is all guess work we have got a IPTV box reserved with MRSKYTV who have guaranteed delivery within 3 days of the change over so whilst not worried we would rather avoid the expense"
BBC spokesperson and unsympathetic Alix Pryde is probably rubbing her hands at the thought of cutting off half a million British Ex Pats from their daily fix of Eastenders, Coronation Street, Emmerdale and the children's CBeebies.
A resident in Torrevieja said "I think it is disgusting that you can legally watch BBC1 and ITV in Australia but not in Spain when Spain is in the EU, the UK is in the EU so why can we not watch BBC1 or ITV?" he went on to say "I have been told that Alix Pryde had a big fallout with someone that has a Holiday Villa in Marbella who she does not like so has used her powers to orchestrate this, thankfully it looks like the Costa Blanca will not be affected" Whilst there are various conspiracies, whispers and guess work nobody really knows what will happen until it happens.
One thing is for sure, the past 12 months have been tough for many satellite installers after warnings of "DO NOT BUY A SATELLITE DISH" appeared on a prominent website back in December 2012. Many installers have gone in to liquidation and or out of business with Newspapers scrambling to take on new IPTV advertisers and publish propaganda such as headlines of "LOSS OF UK TV SPAIN" and some satellite engineers saying that "Satellite Engineers are being economical with the truth" only helped to increase the rumours and concerns amongst many British Families in Spain worried about loosing UK TV and creating distrust in both the trade and with the public. This coupled with a slow down in British Families buying property in Spain.
Jason Harding of www.mrskytv.com said "Only the Costa del Sol will be affected in Spain, parts of Portugal, France and Germany will be affected, Cyprus lost everything" He went on to say "The World is changing all of the time, we have been providing Internet based TV solutions since 2008 to overseas workers as far away as Singapore and Thailand" Things are looking bad with 500'000 Families expected to be affected by the new satellite changeover in November / December 2013 many new start up businesses have sprung up offering IPTV solutions including FREE and pay per month services that range in price from €9.99 to €29.99 a month.

This is the official statement;
“The Astra 2E mission team is preparing for the launch on September 30. While ILS and Khrunichev did address a technical issue during this delay, the primary purpose of the delay was to accommodate a joint review by the Russian and Kazakhstan government to address environmental and safety concerns. We agree that undertaking this review is a prudent precautionary measure. While this review will have a short delay impact to the Astra 2E and Sirius FM6 missions, it will not impact the number of Proton missions we anticipated launching before year end 2013.”
