a ‘we’re living in the future’ photo from earlier this week, with the space shuttles Atlantis and Endeavour side by side at Kennedy Space Center. with Atlantis now way out in space repairing the Hubble space telescope, the second shuttle is on stand-by for a rescue mission if worst comes to worst. another double act blasts off later today, with the European Space Agency launching both the Herschel and Planck space probes on a single Ariane 5 rocket. you can watch the lift-off live this afternoon
