Watching The Launch Over The Internet - Archive Page

The 2001 Mars Odyssey launch was transmitted live on NASA TV. Several organizations inside and outside NASA transmit NASA TV to the World Wide Web. Note that a free plugin is often required to view the video stream, and it is highly recommended that you install and test out the plugin well in advance of the launch. Both video and audio coverage is provided.
