How to watch NASA's Artemis 1 moon mission launch live in a 360-degree VR experience
NASA's Artemis 1 moon mission is ready launch into space this week and you can take part in a ringside experience live.
"Artemis Ascending" will use 360-degree virtual reality to let participants feel like they're standing near the Artemis 1 mission as it lifts off no earlier than Monday (Aug. 29). You'll be able to virtually witness NASA's most powerful rocket yet, the Space Launch System (SLS) megarocket, as it lifts the Orion spacecraft on a journey to the moon. Liftoff is set for 8:33 a.m. EDT (1233 GMT).
Felix&Paul Studios aims to bring the launch to viewers who have access to Oculus Quest headsets(opens in new tab) or can watch it on the Space Explorers Facebook page(opens in new tab). The event will begin at 7:33 a.m. EDT (1133 GMT) and run through the final countdown and launch. You can also watch it at one of 200 domes and planetariums around the world.
I'll watch it from home.
