Cool. Added that (with a couple tweaks) as a section in the OP.

I wonder what the chances are that we'll pickup the docking on this HD ISS Ustream feed?

Even if you can't see it well on that stream, NASA always covers berthing and unberthing events on NASA TV. That said, it's not as interesting to watch as you might guess - takes a LONG time and nothing moves very fast.

I'd still watch, at least once.

I really want a space elevator. We should be doing that instead of rockets.

There can't be many situations in the world where a slab of concrete is noteworthy, so we might as well experience it.

NASA TV coverage is live if you care enough to watch "pre-game". Nothing but silent views of the rocket at the moment, though.

This is the first time I've ever paid any attention to the NASA broadcasts before maybe T-10 minutes. It's even worse than I expected.

DaFace 07-17-2016 10:29 PM

SpaceX webcast is live.

This, I keep going back to "Pacific Rim" that I taped.
