You mean the E@H app that will crunch O1 data. Yes, it's on our TODO list.

Science run does not mean data analysis by Einstein@Home. Science run means that Advanced LIGO will start to gatehr data. Analysis of the data, probably will start when scienece run will end.

Here's the official website

Here's the official website for the LISA Pathfinder Launch, including a countdown.

This link point's to the English version, but note there are other languages available (set in top right corner)

https://lisapathfinder.org/#en

automatic language selection

https://lisapathfinder.org/

You can already take a sneak preview of things to happen after the launch: the "Next Up" box under the rocket animation has a "What's next" button. If you push it, the animation will fast-forward to the next mission milestone.

There's also a list of events worldwide to either watch it live or show replays of it and present talks about the mission. Note that some events require registration.

Hi! It seems the launch

Hi!

It seems the launch was delayed by exactly 24 hours, the lisapathfinder.org site gives the new launch date as

Dec 3rd, 4:04 GMT.

To save you from confusion, the lisapathfinder.org site will automatically convert the date to your local timezone (see top right corner of the page for the detected location).
