Watch NASA’s Exploding Moon Rocket Live on NASA TV

Remember the LCROSS project, the one in which NASA plans to fire a huge exploding rocket into the moon? The goal is to eject debris from the surface of one of moon’s craters and discovering whether there’s frozen water there.

Well, the time to sit back, relax, grab some popcorn and watch the mission as it unfolds is drawing near. Early tomorrow, on October 9, 6:15 a.m. EDT/3:15 a.m. PDT, NASA will start a live TV broadcast that will include live footage from the spacecraft camera, real-time telemetry based animation, expert commentary, and possibly some live footage from the 88-inch telescope located on Mauna Kea, Hawaii.

You can also follow the mission on Twitter and on Facebook, as well as read the latest info on the official blog. NASA claims the final stage of the mission will be “spectacular”, so we’ll set our expectations to “crazy high”.
