Here's how to watch NASA's first live 360-degree video of a rocket launch

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — NASA and United Launch Alliance will broadcast the first 360-degree view of a rocket launch live Tuesday as a cargo payload heads to the International Space Station.

The launch from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station is scheduled for 11:11 a.m. with a 30-minute window. The broadcast begins at 11 a.m.

To see the launch live, go to NASA's YouTube channel and use your mouse to manipulate the view.

“While virtual reality and 360 technology have been increasing in popularity, live 360 technology is a brand-new capability that has recently emerged,” NASA said in a statement. “Recognizing the exciting possibilities opened by applying this new technology to spaceflight, NASA, ULA and Orbital ATK seized this opportunity to virtually place the public at the base of the rocket during launch.”

Orbital ATK’s Cygnus spacecraft will be loaded with 7,600 pounds of research, supplies and hardware for the space station. It will launch on ULA’s Atlas V rocket.
