They cut the feed and then the rocket was there on the ship. They couldn’t have a camera out there to show it landing?

Having the rocket land itself is some real sci-fi crazy shite.

wait... they could possibly "abort to orbit"?



It means you have enough speed to get to stable orbit even if you can't get to the mission altitude. means you can choose to reenter where ever you want.

What an amazing reboot of the Gemini program. This is like watching the Force Awakens for the first time.

I watched the last one where they took some satellites up and the same happened. I think it is the blast from the rockets burning that blacks out the camera. I don't think the feed cuts out.

How are they so calm right now? How are they putting together full sentences?

Literally minutes after blasting into space: “thanks everyone and congratulations”

Thank you for riding Falcon IX, today.

Before you depart the launch stage, please make sure your tray tables are in the upright and locked position.

Thanks again for riding Falcon IX.

It’s amazing how far technology has come. We are going to likely be able to watch the entire flight to the space station in real time.

I am an ultra cynical person by nature.

That was fricking awesome.
