back

Unfortunately the feed died for me ~20s before launch (in S. America, and also for several people I was online chatting with [US, Ukraine]). After a bit, the audio briefly came back and I heard the sound of the rocket engine and the announcer say "exploration", which I take to mean the rocket launched. NASA's twitter account also says the rocket lauched[0] and 17 min to orbit[1].

EDIT: Looks like the feed is now revived (12:11 UTC).

It went down for a lot of people, looking at the twitter feed on the side of http://www.ustream.tv/nasahdtv a lot of people are complaining. I was at T-9 seconds and it died.
I was wondering why I missed it. The video wouldn't load for a few minutes and when I finally was able to start viewing again the rocket was already T+2:35ish :/
