Spaceflight Now has a very interesting article on Saturday's
planned launch of the IIR-11 GPS satellite (SVN59); see
http://www.spaceflightnow.com/
This will be the 50th spacecraft in the constellation and
is planned to be placed into Plane C, slot 3. It will
replace the ailing 11-year old SVN31 (PRN31) in mid-April.
