We’re watching the SpaceX launch today and giving you the link to the YouTube video for the Saturday, March 30 live stream
How the watch the SpaceX launch today, Saturday, March 360 isn’t rocket science – it’s rather easy thanks to the live stream liftoff video embedded below.
The historic SpaceX launch time is 3:22pm EDT (more time zones detailed below) is happening live right now – weather permitting – as is the second attempt to return the American NASA astronauts to space from US soil for the first time since 2011.
You can watch the SpaceX live stream, with preparations well underway. The actual launch happens in less than three hours, according to the official NASA countdown.
Right now, however, there’s a lot to going into this weekend’s SpaceX liftoff, including loading NASA astronauts into the Dragon capsule, which they just got inside, while they’re wearing their SpaceX-designed suits.
It’s a bit of deja vu if you watched the SpaceX live stream this past Wednesday. A lot of the same procedures are in place. If this Saturday March 30 launch gets scrubbed, it’ll be another repeat when a launch window opens up again in the future.
Here’s how to watch the SpaceX launch live stream via YouTube:
Today’s delayed SpaceX Demo-2 mission remains historic, as it’s happening at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. It’s the first such launch on US soil in nearly a decade – since NASA retired the Space Shuttle nine years ago. It’s also the first time that a SpaceX reusable spacecraft will be sending NASA astronauts into space. It’s the birth of commercially-backed human space travel.
The destination of this SpaceX launch is the International Space Station (ISS) for a one- to four-month duration for NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken, according to our friends over at Space.com.
You, of course, may have more questions. What time is the SpaceX live streaming starting in your region of the world? What’s happened during the whole prep process that I missed? And who are the two NASA astronauts?
We have all of those answers below, as we wait for the SpaceX countdown – again.
The official Demo-2 SpaceX launch time is today, Saturday, May 30 at 3:22pm EDT, so the times across the continental US will be 2:22pm CDT / 1:22pm MDT / 12:22pm PDT. You may want to show up a couple of minutes ahead of time to take in the glory of the rocket lighting up and clouds of smoke surrounding the launch pad.
The UK SpaceX launch time is 20:22 BST. In addition to tuning into the video live stream, you should go outside soon afterward and see if you can catch a glimpse of the SpaceX-built spacecraft in the night sky at around 20:40 BST.
