Note from moderator: the pdf file that Jan offers does not work, and, as it was
embedded in her quote from that site (the site offered a bad url), what we can
do is simply go to http://television.esa.int and search around.


Rather remarkable news-item to be release today by NATURE:

The scientific journal NATURE will publish in its issue dated 26

The European Southern Observatory ESO contributed to this publication

Also a pre-view video clip will be online on the ESA TV Website as of
that time.

This ESA TV Exchanges feed is transmitted by the European
