Space X Launch - Who’s Watching

[mikeg_74]

I’ve always been interested in NASA and all things space since I was a kid. Space X is sending two Astronauts to the International Space Station in about an hour, anyone else watching?

You can live stream here
or on Discovery Channel through tour local cable/satellite provider

Nope at work. Can sneak in the THP forum but don't think I could get away with that.

 

[YukonLiving]

I’m hopeful to have a break then!

Makes sense... pretty significant event!

I wonder how much more via Discovery channel

Are they pushing this live via cable/satellite tv?

yes via Discovery Channel, that’s how I’m watching

Those guys look laid back right now in those seats.

That’s great!! I’m happy to hear that this sort of stuff still takes precedence for air time.

Just a little eh? Fingers crossed and everything. I’m still amazed at their suits. They look so much more nimble than previous iterations.

I watch the Discovery Channel's documentary last night after Deadliest Catch and I've had it on the Discovery Channel ever since the coverage started today at 2:00. I was always fascinated by the space shuttle as a kid so this is really cool to watch and a nice distraction from everything else.

 

[Reframmellator]

I skipped school with "stomachaches" to watch Mercury and Gemini launches. I fooled nobody. But I have my l work laptop at my desk where I can watch Discovery on my PC. I will be there!

Also on C-SPAN2 and Nat Geo.

 

[Midman03]

Nasa TV is also being broadcasted on C-SPAN2. Much better than the Discovery channel broadcast IMO.

 

[G-Man]

This is awesome! So much technology at fingertip access...

 

[Midman03]

Weather not looking too good for launch.

Weather not looking too good for launch.

Here’s hoping they can still go today!

 

[mikeg_74]

Cancelled due to weather

 

[YukonLiving]

Oh well... safety first.

 

[baylrballa]

lame, aborted.

 

[Nate]

Aborted for the day.

 

[Midman03]

Much rather the launch be aborted than something awful happen post launch. Here's to Saturday!

 

[RealPretendPsychic]

On the plus side, the weekend launch watch will definitely include beer
