Watch Live: Blue Origin's 20th Mission Prepares for Liftoff Today
pcmag.comBlue Origin is set to conduct its fourth human spaceflight today, and we can all watch the launch streamed live at 9:20am ET this morning.
The live stream, which you can watch below, will go live at around 8:20am ET and build-up to the launch an hour later. That's assuming there's no delay.
The six astronauts on this mission include Marty Allen, Sharon Hagle, Marc Hagle, Jim Kitchen, Gary Lai, and Dr. George Nield. SNL actor Pete Davidson was meant to be a member of the NS-20 mission crew, but canceled his trip earlier this month.
In a pre-mission interview yesterday, Blue Origin lead flight director, Nicholas Patrick, pointed out that weather was the main factor in any potential delay. He describes the weather in Van Horn, Texas as "interesting." Surface winds and high-altitude winds are the biggest concerns both for the initial launch and the subsequent landing of the booster and the capsule.
