GeoEye's Next-Generation Satellite Confirmed for Launch Saturday, Sept. 6

GeoEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEOY), announced that the 30th Space Wing at Vandenberg Air Force Base (VAFB), Calif. has approved a Sept. 6 launch for GeoEye-1. Hurricane Hanna has changed course away from Florida, so the Company's launch provider, United Launch Alliance (ULA), has mobilized personnel from the East Coast to the West Coast to support the new launch date. Final preparations for launch are underway.

Watch 'Live' on the Internet
The launch video and commentary will be streamed 'live' over the Internet beginning at about 11:15 a.m. PDT after feeding 15 minutes of bars and tone. The live Web broadcast can be accessed by visiting the GeoEye Web site (www.geoeye.com/) or by going directly to launch.geoeye.com/. Boeing's webcast of the launch may be found at: www.boeing.com/defense-space/space/bls/missions/335/.
