As I said before, it just looks plain bizarre to have so much "stuff" on that pad compared to everything they've done before.

Really, as I think about it, it's modern (unmanned) rockets that are the outlier. Growing up, I was pretty used to every launch being on a big, complicated complex like 39A. It's just that lately we've gotten used to launch pads being pretty streamlined and minimalist.

As is their technical webcast. No "announcers", but awesome to hear the comms and see different angles. I usually keep both up.

I'll watch this one from my balcony. See how my dogs react to the Sonic Boom.
