First 2 episodes are up. Very focused on the crew, backgrounds, selection, etc. Pretty emotional. Very focused on the mission, with much less focus on SpaceX than I expected. I actually enjoyed it and am looking forward to the rest of the episodes.

Tough to keep at bay a sense of foreboding, personalizing people doing something extraordinary without skills and training to deal with potential adversity. One side says it's foolhardy, and one side says it's a leviathan testament to the faith in the procedures and engineering to do this and publicize it before it's done. And I gotta say, the use of 'Uninvited' at the end of ep 2 was friggin' inspired. Chills and tears aplenty.

Haven't seen any pics of the engine bells on B4 during this move yet. Last time there were 5 engines that had not yet been test fired. Assuming the rush to perform a fit check on the platform. Hoping in the last week they were able to replace those engines.

Finished episode 2. It's certainly a good hype video if nothing else!
Love Dr. Proctor. It's fun to have a true space geek in the mix. |

It's taken a while for demand to catch up, but it's looking like we're finally going to see fairly regular Falcon Heavy launches!
I'm a little bummed that the next one will expend the center core, but dual drone ship landings should be fun. Date is currently NET October 9th. Last edited by DaFace; 09-11-2021 at 10:54 AM.. |
