That's true, but I think its the first time (not counting with the Shenzhou launches and the Chang'e launches), that we are having Ğliveğ views from inside the launch control room. And there is many information on the microbloggers.
Let's hope its the ZhongXing-1A or I'll have to change the news article!!!
