        It was more a joke- they were very slightly different. Seemed like one was ahead of the other. It's amazing that we have the ability of doing that now, when you look at the coverage back 50 years ago.

          Now we know why Mother Nature didn't comply.

              She's had 1296 days to, and hasn't yet. Don't hold your breath.

                Especially since I will be! Only the fifth time ever that a new US rocket type has launched humans into orbit (Mercury-Atlas, Gemini-Titan II, Apollo-Saturn V, Columbia Space Shuttle, and now Crew Dragon-Falcon 9). I distinctly remember watching the last one in 1981 - they wheeled the AV cart out into the hall of my elementary school so we could all watch on one of the 3 or 4 TVs that the school owned.
                If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

                  Totally jealous. I wanted to go to a shuttle launch, but that bucket list item went unfulfilled.

                    The shuttle was lame. This is cool. I really want to attend one of these someday, as up close and personal as Dr. Mrs.' NASA buddies can get me.

                      Interesting. On what basis is Crew Dragon cool and the Space Shuttle lame? In orbit, the SS became a mini space station for doing science, repairing satellites, putting new satellites in orbit, etc. Crew Dragon is just a taxicab.

                      And aren’t you supposed to prefer collective public projects over profit-driven corporate enterprises?

                                I'm with you 100%. The shuttle was incredible. My animus toward Musk aside, this is particularly lame in comparison.

                                The first question I had when I saw the live stream was: Wait, this thing is all touchscreen? I'm scared I won't be able to adjust the A/C in my car if the touchscreen fails. I'm not trying to dock with another object at 17,000 MPH.
