I had the Weather Channel on the TV and they had someone there. If it had gone launched, I was planning on going outside to see if I could see it going up

Next window of opportunity is Sept 2, then 5 and then, most probably by the end of the year

With NASA unable to launch today, the agency could try for one of at least two back-up days on which to fly Artemis 1 on its mission to the moon. If the agency solves the Engine No. 3 issue, it could try to launch again Friday (Sept. 2) or Sept. 5, weather permitting. If NASA cannot launch by Sept. 5, its next launch try would likely be in October, mission managers have said. Launch opportunities are limited by the stage of the moon and lighting conditions upon reentry, among other considerations.

 

“The earliest opportunity, depending on what happens with this engine bleed, would be Sept. 2,” Nail said. “However, we will await a determination of what the plan is to go forward.”

Whenever it is ... if I am home and remember - I will look for that big roman-candle in the sky streaking upward.

From where I live, I cannot quite see the actual vehicle as it heads to space - but, if I look south-south-east and the weather is clear, I can usually see the flame and smoke.

 

We did see the Challenger explosion back when that happened

You are lucky to have such opportunity to see such amazing thing like launch of rockets. Are you also take some pictures in such situation? Did you watch launch of Rocket with James Webb telescope?
