L-1 minute. No webcast. We'll have to rely on the webcams.

They should have broadcast a testcard or something earlier to check it, They'll learn..

Well this is a first for a launch. A webcast available, but not working.

Anyone with a camera in the Pacific ocean?

Liftoff should have occurred. Awaiting a new webcam image to confirm.

Hard refresh and they've taken down the player. Still claiming a launch at 20:18GMT, so no scrub notice.

Three minutes to staging. Only a 100 people on that ustream, so that was a very good find that not many people are aware of.
