Congratulations to the LISA Pathfinder team for the succesful launch today! The LHO and LLO control rooms both took part in a Google Hangouts interactive live-stream in the leadup and following the launch of LISA Pathfinder. Besides a few technical difficulties with Google Hangouts/YouTube, I think it was a nice experience. We were able to answer a few questions how LIGO and LISA are different, our current operational status, etc. We now look forward to the interesting scientific output from the mission!

Congratulations again! :)
