Here’s how you can catch a glimpse of tonight’s NASA rocket launch

According to our friends at the News Journal, you can catch a glimpse of tonight’s NASA rocket launch if you live in Sussex County. Why? “Because of the way the earth is arched,” the paper reports.
“Those in Delaware should expect to see the rocket — or what will likely look like a glowing orange ball — rising in the sky about 60 to 90 seconds after the launch if the weather is clear. Residents in Sussex County may see it sooner because of the arch of the Earth.”
The rocket will haul Orbital Sciences Corporation’s Cygnus cargo spacecraft to the International Space Station, according to a NewsWorks report.
According to NASA, the rocket travels at 18,000 mph to achieve orbit. Get ready to observe the launch seconds after 7:40 p.m tonight.
