Coverage of this has been very confusing.

The ESA live feed at most times show people in some kind of control room staring at screens. There is no apparent way to see any highlights, unless I want to try scrolling back and forth through the hour-long video stream.

At any given time, various forum threads seem to have more information than the ESA site, which seems to communicate mostly through either lighthearted tweets, one-line headlines, or general background articles.

All I want is a simple timeline of events, constantly updated with latest news and images. Instead we have forum threads where you have to dig through comments to find out what is the newest info.

OT but it's kind of amazing that this is actually a simple request these days.



The Guardian live-blog is good as well. Less tweet-heavy than the BBC:

The guardian seems to have made more fuss about the guys shirt than the actual event.
