NASA’s InSight spacecraft is about to blast off for Mars, and you can watch it live right here.

InSight is scheduled to lift off from Vandenberg Air Force Base in on California’s Central Coast as early as 4:05 a.m. Pacific time Saturday. As of Thursday afternoon, all systems were go, the space agency said.

NASA TV’s live coverage will begin at 11:30 p.m. Friday, when the Mobile Service Tower begins its 20-minute-long rollback from the launch vehicle at Vandenberg’s Space Launch Complex 3E. Coverage of the launch itself will begin at 3:30 a.m. Saturday.

The trip to Mars will take nearly seven months and cover roughly 301 million miles. Mission planners at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Cañada Flintridge expect the lander to touch down in Elysium Planitia in late November.
