Its a bird...its a plane...nope, its a rocket! Tonight at 6:45PM! With skies this clear, we should be able to see the rocket launch out of NASAs Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia at 6:45 tonight. Check out this article to see how to spot it in the sky. Depending on local weather conditions, the Antares blastoff will be visible along much of the US eastern seaboard – stretching from Maine to South Carolina. For precise viewing locations and sighting times, see the collection of detailed maps and trajectory graphics courtesy of Orbital Sciences and NASA. Additionally, it looks like we may be able to see the Space Station, which is cool because Antares is carrying Orbital’s private Cygnus cargo freighter loaded with a diverse array of science experiments on a critical cargo resupply mission named Orb-3, and is bound for the International Space Station (ISS).: spotthestation.nasa.gov/sightings/view.cfm?country=United_States®ion=Pennsylvania&city=Doylestown#.VE7B5MmrmZR universetoday/115565/how-to-watch-spectacular-1st-nighttime-antares-launch-to-iss-on-oct-27-complete-viewing-guide/
