What this is

People are riding this Space Launch System (SLS). National Aeronautics and Space Administration is launching them from Kennedy Space Center, FL, USA. Everyone who loves them will be watching the clock.

Artemis III is the second crew mission as part of the Artemis program. Artemis III will send a crew of 4 on a mission, with the Orion rendezvous and dock with one or both commercial lunar landers in development by SpaceX and Blue Origin, performing in-space tests of the docked vehicles, integrated checkout of life support, communications, and propulsion systems, as well as tests of the new Extravehicular Activity (xEVA) suits. Planned orbit: . Status: To Be Determined. Current date is a placeholder or rough estimation based on unreliable or interpreted sources. The published time can still slip. Rockets wait for weather, boats, and the range.

From here

Too far to see

You will not see this rocket from Centennial, Colorado. It is about 1,573 miles east. The broadcast is the view.

That is too far for the flame and, for almost every launch, too far for the high-altitude plume. Dim the lights and watch together anyway. The clock is still loose, so daylight is a guess.
