I will be chatting directly with you, and will attempt not to be talking over the NASA official commentators, but explaining some terms they use and answering your direct questions.

To watch the livestream of the launch on your own go to [NASA’s Mars Landing site](https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/timeline/landing/watch-online/) to get the best links from NASA.

Also, here are some [great activities and information](https://www.nasa.gov/stem/nextgenstem/moon_to_mars/mars2020stemtoolkit) to get you started.
