Abort Test
CST-100 Starliner Pad Abort Test
NASA and Boeing will broadcast live coverage of the CST-100 Starliner Pad Abort Test on Monday, Nov. 4, from Launch Complex 32 at White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. The test is designed to verify that each of Starliner’s systems will function not only separately, but in concert, to protect astronauts by carrying them safely away from the launch pad in the unlikely event of an emergency prior to liftoff. During the test, Starliner’s four launch abort engines and several orbital maneuvering and attitude control thrusters will fire, pushing the spacecraft approximately 1 mile above land and 1 mile north of the test stand.

Apollo 12: 50th Anniversary Coverage
Apollo 12 50th anniversary has a commemorative stream for the launch beginning at 11am EST. The launch will take place at 11:42am. "The second Apollo crew built on the work of the first. In addition to continuing Apollo's lunar exploration tasks they deployed the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package, a set of investigations left on the Moon's surface to gather data. On their way to the Moon, the Apollo 12 crew conducted an orbital maneuver that let them land in the Moon's Western Hemisphere, so they could recover portions of a lander that had been on the moon for two years." - NASA
