Not seeing Mission Control audio for this one.

Edit:  never mind.  Too early.  Their webcast and youtube site say 14:45 when it should be the 1500 hour.

The launch is delayed to 10:14 pm EDT = 02:14 UTC.  It may be private until closer to launch time?
Or someone forgot to switch a YouTube channel setting?

It was public when I posted it.  Presumably it, or a replacement MCA video, will be public when appropriate.
