The rocket will leave Wallops Island, Virginia, at 8:31 PM. It should be visible from the Washington, DC, area a minute or so after takeoff, so 8:32 to 8:33.
Stargazing enthusiasts are welcome at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility Visitor Center, about three hours from downtown DC, for a live audio broadcast from Range Control and in-person viewing just seven miles from where the rocket will actually launch. Visitors are welcome from 5:30 to 9 PM.
