On the right hand side of the screen, there is a field that says "Choose Video". Click on it and select either Narrowband or Wideband Webcast. They are now showing a tribute to Burt Rutan.

The crowds at Mojave are being told to stick around after today's flight for a "major announcement" concerning the X Prize Foundation's future.One of the space sites was reporting that somebody is offering $50 million or so for orbital insertion or moon landings or something along those lines. If I could be any more vague, I would be ;-)

They'll probably announce SS2 (if they call it that) that will carry 6 or more passengers.

I'm only getting audio, not video on the www.soace.com and www.xprize.com webcasts.
Anyone know if I have to open a particular port on a firewall to allow streamng video (as opposed to streaming audio)?

Activities are running a bit behind the advertised timeline. Officials are hoping that winds ease after sunrise.
