1. NASA tv will have it...

Although I'm having trouble finding links....But MSNBC and CNN will have it live.

2. I can't find any links to the damn thing.

CNN makes you register.

3. CNN says they'll cover it live, about one hour from now.

That Space Whore Miles O'Brien (sorry, can't stand him) just reported the take-off on CNN...

5. thread here says MSNBC and NASA TV are carrying it

but I can't get it from them. I can (I'm in the UK) from a link at http://news.bbc.co.uk . It should only be a few minutes before the rocket fires.

8. Won't run on non-Windows machines

Just so you know. I have Windows Media Player on OSX and it says "Platform Error." Well, it's MSNBC after all. But fuck 'em.

9. It's Real Player at news.bbc.co.uk

if that helps

10. Lame coverage

Almost no camera shots of the ride to space. Half the time they are on the crowd and now are focused on a runway...they missed the launch for cryin out loud
