Weather throughout the west for Stardust's upcoming re-entry isn't too
promising at this point. However, if you've got access to NASA-TV, or
can talk your cable company into running it during this event--you'll
be able to watch the entire thing there.
NASA TV coverage of the landing starts Sunday at 1:30 a.m. Pacific
time (2:30 a.m. Mountain time) on the Public (101), Education (102)
and Media (103) channels. NASA TV is available on an MPEG-2 digital
C-band signal accessed via satellite AMC-6, at 72 degrees west
longitude, transponder 17C, 4040 MHz, vertical polarization. In
Alaska and Hawaii, it's available on AMC-7 at 137 degrees west
longitude, transponder 18C, at 4060 MHz, horizontal polarization.
