22 minutes and counting. 

 

[Sgt Hulk 14426]

Sitting at our command post here in LA all system looking good right now. Weather is go. Fueling. Everyone’s anxious 

[HornsOverIthaca 2339]

They launch a second rocket to video/live stream the first, then a third to video the second, and so on.

Astronauts listening to AC/DC “Back in Black” and “For those about to rock”

The hipster broadcast is just awful.

Mispronouncing Buzz's name is inexcusable.

CNN chick is pretty cute but the fast speaking and loud breathing are annoying.

[Sgt Hulk 14426]

I have nervous belly. Stomach in knots.

NASA broadcast is much better than the Discovery infomercial. 

[Braff Zacklin 13676]

Ditto on the NASA broadcast.

Me thinks the issue with the new spacesuits is they look like something a Lego dude would wear.

Indeed. Just like Apollo 11 helped remind the world we are the greatest country in the world amidst protests and turmoil. So will this. Let’s go.

You’re dead if that doesn’t give you goosebumps.

Not gonna lie. I cheered, I teared up, and I thought about my dad. He loved this stuff.

[Nicole44 22306]

Geez 1500 mph!

[Eastwood 4394]

Yeah that totally hit me in the feels.  Didn't expect tears though.

Goddamn what a rush.

[Sgt Hulk 14426]

Let’s stick this landing 

[NeverMarryAStripper 22284]

I hope they show the first stage landing

[F250 29199]

The cockpit and space suits look very minimalist.
