Background information on the transmission:
The landing of Shuttle Discovery tonight is scheduled to be followed some six hours later by a Crew News Conference (without Thomas Reiter) and the release of a short B-roll of Reiter in the Crew Quarters including a few soundbites.
If the landing is at White Sands in New Mexico, both will probably be cancelled.
Instead of live coverage at a yet unknown time in the middle of the night, ESA TV provides a summary B-roll with all relevant images released as of the landing, early the following morning.
This transmission from KSC is on an EBU-operated news channel; please note the specific downlink details and time.
