Webcast telemetry of rocket launches

Webcast (raw) Telemetry From a Launch

Get only the webcast telemetry of a single launch.

Supply a launch provider using the company (see Company endpoint) parameter and identify the launch using flight_number, mission_id or launch_library_2_id query parameter. You can also omit the company parameter by supplying only the launch_library_2_id query parameter.
