Apparently coverage of Shenzhou 10 on CCTV starts at 06:00 UTC (a little more than an hour from now).

I am trying to find a good webcast link.....

For those with Dish Network in the US, try channel 265. They were running previews this morning.

I have seen many live launches on CCTV, John Lewis seem to be coming back every time (?), which is awesome. He gives logical and understandable explanations and have some interesting stories.

Earlier today the three astronauts were met by new Chinese president Xi Jinping (yup, he flew all the way from Sacramento to Beijing to Jiuquan after meeting Obama over the weekend!):
