NASA Sets Coverage for Agency’s SpaceX Crew-12 Launch, Docking - NASA

[Taste]

NASA is set to broadcast a live feed of its upcoming Crew-12 mission to the International Space Station. The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft will be carrying four astronauts - Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway from NASA, Sophie Adenot from the European Space Agency, and Andrey Fedyaev from Roscosmos - on a science mission.

The launch is set to take place at 6:01 am EST on February 11, from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. After liftoff, the live coverage will switch to NASA+, Amazon Prime, and YouTube. The target docking time is around 10:30 am on February 12.

The Crew-12 mission marks NASA's 12th crew rotation mission and its 13th human spaceflight mission to the International Space Station using the Dragon spacecraft since 2020. The mission will provide scientific opportunities for the astronauts to conduct experiments and test new technologies.

Viewers can watch live coverage on the agency’s YouTube channel, with individual events having their own streams closer to the start time. Social media platforms such as X, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter will also be providing updates and behind-the-scenes insights throughout the mission.

NASA's website will also offer launch day coverage, including live streaming at 4 a.m. on February 11. Additionally, members of the public can register to attend the launch virtually, with exclusive access to curated resources and notifications about related opportunities or changes.

The Crew-12 mission is part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program, which has delivered safe, reliable, and cost-effective transportation to and from low Earth orbit and the International Space Station. This partnership aims to open up new opportunities for science, commercial ventures, and human exploration of Mars in the years to come.

Omg, like I'm so hyped for this Crew-12 mission !!! It's gonna be so cool to watch these astronauts live on space station ! I'm also loving that NASA is making it easy for us to tune in, whether it's on YouTube or socials... can't wait to see the tech they're testing up close . And let's be real, it's not just about the science tho... who wouldn't wanna be part of the crew ? The commercial crew program is literally opening doors for humanity's next big adventures... Mars here we come!

I'm super stoked about this upcoming Crew-12 mission ! It's gonna be so cool to see these four awesome astronauts blast off into space. I mean, can you imagine being on that spacecraft, floating around the International Space Station, conducting experiments and testing new tech? It's mind-blowing stuff!

I love how NASA is making this whole mission available for us to watch live ! I know there are gonna be some pretty cool behind-the-scenes moments, especially when the astronauts are getting ready for launch. And with all the social media updates, we'll get to see what's happening in real-time on X, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter .

What I'm really excited about is how this mission fits into NASA's bigger plans ! The Commercial Crew Program is a game-changer, making space travel more accessible and affordable for everyone. And with the ultimate goal of exploring Mars, it's like we're on the cusp of something huge!

I think what I love most about space exploration is how it brings us all together . It's not just about the science or the tech; it's about inspiring future generations to pursue their dreams and reach for the stars. So, let's get ready for liftoff on February 11 and enjoy this epic journey!

I'm actually stoked that NASA is gonna live stream this mission! It's so cool to see humans going to space and doing experiments . The fact that it's being shared on different platforms like YouTube and social media is awesome, too - I'll be able to watch it with my friends who are also super into space .

I wish they'd make the live stream more accessible for people in other countries, though . It can be tough when we're not as close to launch sites or have different internet speeds . Still, I'm hyped to see what kind of new tech and discoveries come out of this mission !

so i think its kinda awesome that nasa is making this live feed thingy available on all these platforms - youtube, amazon prime, x, facebook... you name it! its gonna be a big deal for space enthusiasts out there and i bet lots of people are hyped about seeing the crew-12 mission go down. but what really gets me excited is that nasa's pushing the boundaries with this commercial crew program... they're basically saying "hey, we've got this whole space travel thing figured out now" and thats gonna open up doors for all sorts of cool projects, from scientific experiments to actual human missions to mars! its like, the next big step for humanity and i cant wait to see what nasa has in store

OMG, I'm super excited about this launch ! I mean, can you believe we're going to be able to watch live on YouTube and NASA+?! It's like something out of a sci-fi movie . And the fact that they're gonna share exclusive updates on social media is lit ! I've been following the progress of these astronauts for months now, and it's amazing to think about all the cool experiments they'll be conducting up there . I'm also loving the idea of being able to register for a virtual launch experience - it feels like we're gonna get a front-row seat to history ! Fingers crossed the weather holds out for that 6:01 am EST launch
