The weather is a go
 

Watching the coverage, this launch this rocket this camerawork this computerize event makes the Apollo flights look like a silent movie from the mid 20s.

Stupendous, especially the video views.

This is superlative and magnificent achievement from mind of Elon Musk and untold numbers of others to make this happen.

To the glory of mankind!!!!!
 
Why all the hoopla? How many times have the Russians done it already? 60? 80? It hasn't been a focus of the US; we could have done it if were.

It is historic for the fact that it is the first commercial manned spaceflight to the ISS ushering in a new and epic era of exploration and is a tremendous achievement.

Something that ought to be celebrated, especially right now.
 
Haven’t been on the tube much. I hope to see a documentary or hr or two special condensed.

Thi isn't a doc but it is a pretty special vid of the docking set to to Blue Danube just like in 2001. I think it's great.

"2020: A Space Odyssey" is finally for real -- also in visuals and music.
