    Live stream here If you go to that page you can navigate to streams for Android and IOS devices.

    Anybody else going to be up watching this? I'm going to :-) That's assuming I can wake up or don't fall asleep again lol

    I will probably be haunting this thread if anybody is about in the wee hours :-)

    I'm probably gonna tune in for about 6am. Fingers crossed!!!

    Pretty amazing. I've always wanted to see a space launch so took the opportunity. So glad I did. Great feeling of anticipation and excitement then amazement as you see the blazing light of the engines pushing into the sky. It's incredibly fast, something that cannot be conveyed by watching it on TV. Fucking loud too.



    You can only really hear the wind but I wasn't expecting my phone to pick up the rumble you could feel in the ground about a minute after it took off. It's also a bit shakey as I wasn't watching this through the my phone, just racking ti with the occasional very quick glance.

    Will this not be aired live on any of the news channels as most important launches and stuff are? Really want to watch this but my Internet is dying on its arse at the moment. Watching the stream would be like a slide show for me.

    I guess if you have cable\satellite it might be there but I'm not sure :)

    I just downloaded the NASA app for android and found I can watch it that way on my tablet. So cool for me 2o not get out of bed and watch it and haunt this thread. I'm assuming the app spill be on the apple store too.

    Had a look a the various sky documentary channels and can't see anything. The news channels might show something though.

    Yeah they usually show some live coverage whenever anything launches, not exactly much else newsworthy going on at that time UK wise either. I'll get up early and remain hopeful for some coverage over a bowl of cereal!

    Curiosity, the Mars Science Laboratory, is supposed to land on the red planet tonight or today, depending on where you happen to be on Earth.
    It's tomorrow, numbnuts. ;)

    Cubby didn't know how to turn off sigs!

    So have they found any triple-breasted women yet?!

    if you have nothing intresting to say then you might as well just throw your bags on the truck and drive away

    Why do they need to send rovers when those two blokes are already there?
