Live coverage of the Falcon 9 launch for the second Cargo Re-Supply Mission to ISS. Roughly 30 minutes to launch if all goes according to plan. They are fueling up and doing checklist as we speak. The coverage people are kind of cheesy, but the actual launch is always a blast!
On CRS-1 they actually lost an engine but still made it to orbit. So hopefully this one goes better than last time.
EDIT: Live coverage is done for the most part, it's in orbit now and headed to the ISS. The launch and climb to orbit all went well. Will post a video of the launch when I get one.
EDIT2: They lost the feed after the capsule was in orbit, press conference in two hours. Could be a simple glitch, could be a problem with the solar array not deploying, etc. Could be nothing, could be a complete mission failure.
EDIT3: All thrusters are working again, and although it sounds like they may be delayed getting to the ISS on time, the mission is back in business and all systems are good to go.
Video of the launch: Mission is successful so far but with a few bumps in the road...
Word I got from folks on-center (KSC) is that they orbital thrusters have failed to fire properly. They're getting the recovery team together and there is talk of de-orbiting.
