7:45 a.m.: Coverage of tanking operations to load propellant into the SLS rocket begins, including views of the rocket and audio from a commentator.
12:50 p.m.: NASA+ coverage of launch begins. Coverage continues on YouTube after Orion’s solar array wings deploy in space.
Approximately two-and-a-half hours after launch, NASA will hold a post-launch news conference after the SLS rocket’s upper stage performs a burn to send Orion and its crew to high Earth orbit. The start time is subject to change, based on the exact liftoff time.

Good luck to the crew for their safe trip to the Moon and back.
Explanation: Lets Fucking Goooooooo!

Personal Disclosure: I'm keeping my expectations low and erring on the side of caution and expecting a full failure and loss of all crew ... because NASA ok!
Do not engage in useless activity ... and ... from one thing, know many things!
