As per Elon Musk, > Streaming live exclusively on this platform! Broadcast link, https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1OwxWYzDXjWGQ --- edit: It looks like there is a YouTube link available (see comment below mine), and what Elon meant is that SpaceX themselves would be streaming exclusively on Twitter. Apologies for confusion.

If he said it must be true :-) https://youtu.be/8VESowgMbjA

Does "something went wrong" mean you have to be logged in to view it, like you have to be logged in to do anything on the musk hellsite these days?

Yeah. As a logged-in user I can see it, but it is not playing yet.

Well that's aggravating. I can't watch it after I lost access to my account because every time I do the 2FA it just tells me "something went wrong"

The youtube video is third party footage, which can also be interesting, but it's definitely not the same as the official broadcast, which is _not_ going to be on youtube (unless you want to watch a badly faked video of Musk giving away bitcoin instead of the launch).

Is this feed live? Asking because I see a ~20 minute gap with the official countdown time.

It says Live and is showing the correct Central Time(CT). But I would rather watch it with 20 min delay than create an X account... :-)

Why be on HN calling things names while being stupid? These style of comments are constant on HN now.

I get it's autism insulting the users of the site you want help on, but not the stupidity.

But it's a free account for Twitter. A lot of OSINT is on Twitter. A lot of tech info is on Twitter.

If dumb just do what everyone else does for fucks sake or don't ape the media like an NPC with stupid insults. Pretend you are smart, fake it till you make it.

Yes you need a login. There are always other livestreams on youtube.

Youtube livestreams are buggy sometimes, make sure you seek to the end.

I’m going to watch an alternative stream (probably Everyday Astronaut’s or NSF’s) on my TV just because I can’t be bothered with working out how to stream X to it. I’m sure I’m not the only one. IFT-3 I ended up watching some random restream of the official X stream on YouTube, which was actually less delayed/buffered than X on my phone was

Everyday Astronaut is going to try to get tracking footage of the booster all the way from launch to the landing burn. That might be better than the official footage.

There was a tweet linked somwhere here in which Musk said launch is 7:20 Texas time, 20mins before the "event" starts

So many cases of such login walls and/or automatic display bans are seen on Twitter these days. It's insane.
