Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency

The launch experiment of the M-V Launch Vehicle No. 6 (M-V-6) with the
23rd scientific satellite (ASTRO-EII) onboard has been rescheduled to
no earlier than July 10, 2005 (Japan Standard Time, JST) due to the
adverse weather condition.

Today, the new launch experiment date was set after careful
consideration of the weather:


Experiment Date : July 10 (Sunday), 2005 (JST)
Experiment Time : Between 12:30 and 1:00 p.m. (JST)
Extra Experiment Dates : July 11 through 15, 2005 (JST)


(Note) In case that we cannot conduct the launch experiment within the
above window, we will carry it out between July 22 through August 2,
which is our usual allocated launch window.
