The Astronomy site (barring any technical difficulties) is scheduled to launch this week, likely 5/31 or 6/1 or 6/2.

A follow-up to the original question would be: Is there a way to know this without posting a question on Meta?

@Shane: We try to launch sites on the Tuesday or Wednesday after the proposal reaches 100%. But sometimes technical concerns or resource issues push that back a week.

@Robert Cartaino - Thanks for the response. So, we could expect to see the Gardening and Landscaping site begin beta on June 7th then, is that correct?
