I know I will get flamed for not researching this myself but....

I was just thinking to set my alarm for the LCROSS impact.

I know it's around 6:20 est.

Will I be able to see the impact on this channel?

Thank you for posting this!

Yeah this may be a bit boring... this is getting it ready to separate to send to the moon...

Edit to add: Real-time, telemetry-based animation of separation on the right side... nothing much more than audio i guess...

Now what is the chance that the impact would knock out a huge chuck of Lunar rock and send it huralling to earth?

Well that seemed to go well I guess.

I am looking forward to the live feed tomorrow morning!

It also says "The Centaur will impact the floor of Cabeus crater at 4:31:19 a.m. PDT. Following about 4 minutes behind and collecting and transmitting data back to LCROSS mission control, the Shepherding spacecraft will impact the surface at approximately 4:35:45 a.m. PDT."...

So who's gonna be up for a smoke and a pancake??
