As we mentioned yesterday, today will mark Orbital Science's first attempt to send its Antares rocket into space. Meant to provide an alternative route to deliver supplies to the International Space Station, the Antares is ready for liftoff at NASA's Wallops facility on the east coast of Virginia.

Our own Matthew Francis is on hand to get pictures of the facility and liftoff attempt, but you can watch the events live on NASA TV. To save you the hassle of finding NASA TV, we've embedded the livestream below. Orbital Sciences has a lot of experience in the rocketry business, so we're crossing our fingers that its first liftoff with the new hardware will go off without a hitch.
