tater Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Thanks for posting those tweets, I sent the LA image to a buddy of mine in LA who is likely not keeping up with launch stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman703 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 SpaceX has apparently heard your pleas. They will have one "hosted" stream, and one with our normal rocket speak, according to their post. "SpaceX webcast will go live at about 1:15pm ET/10:15am PT. For our full hosted webcast, use this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivdKRJzl6y0 For views of rocket, launch countdown audio and telemetry info, use this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkz_lclGXNg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tater Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 That's awesome, the hosted thing last time was just awful. If I wanna see stuff like that I can watch the youtube junk my kids watch, or twitch (shudder). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a live view of the barge on the Jason-3 Rocket and Countdown Only steam, it looked clear enough to see passed the barge. So a landing would be easily seen. It looked calm too or calm enough. It was a short clip. Edited January 17, 2016 by Albert VDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerbonautInTraining Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) 10 funds says the rocket blows all the fog away No but really, if the fog is that bad at the barge I'm gonna cry Edited January 17, 2016 by KerbonautInTraining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
