I couln't get the live feed to work for me. I'm hoping a recording turns up somewhere soon.

Looks like an Anvil cloud reaching in to 12 miles currently. I've found the live weather radar feed, and while I'm no weatherman, I get the idea.

Is there any way of saving my live feed?

My live feed works fine (media player classic & windows media player) but I'm off to work - wouldn't mind watching it tomorrow.

A Google of "capture streaming media" reveals nothing.

I'm certain the BBC News web site will allow you to view the launch later.

thought it would be. might have a chance to visit there in the next few months

It's now marginal and they're looking at one particular storm active 30 miles to the west. It's the same one I spotted on the radar feed and it seems to have moved away a little (17 miles at the eastern edge). Time to cross fingers. :eek:

Thanks - unless I'm doing something wrong, it doesn't work.

Now back to definite no-go again. Tense++ :eek:

Flibster · 1 Jul 2006 at 20:26

Currently

NO-GO for Launch and the forecast isn't looking much better apparently.

Berserker · 1 Jul 2006 at 20:28

Well, that's that then.

Red and White · 1 Jul 2006 at 20:30

Gutted

Berserker · 1 Jul 2006 at 20:33

Just one big storm in the wrong place...

The launch pad is in the centre of the yellow circle, and it's that big clump to the west that's caused the problem.

Next launch attempt would most likely be at around 20:25 BST tomorrow.

Currently downloading 3 different streams from Nasa - 1 appears to be a office.. :confused:
