BigStewMan Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 yes it did ... i’m posting from the capsule now. internet connection went out for about a minute after launch but is fine now. thought i’d hitch a ride and recycle all my jokes for the space aliens. sorry for not saying goodbye to you all, but after reading a few threads, it clear that you folks have just gotten way to smart for me. Not sure why the world leaders, scientists, and doctors just don’t join this forum -- all the answers are here. I forgot my ketchup so hopefully space ketchup will be available. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 To really prove himself - an electric 🚀 Amazing accomplishment in 12 years and landing the first stage on a platform is beyond the beyond. I heard the analogy of dropping a pencil from a 100 story building to a target and sticking the landing on the eraser— The SpaceX control room looks quite impressive and like the new space suits very modern and worthy of the space program. We visited the Houston complex a year ago and were granted access to the control room floor and had a good look see. It was a mishmash of keyboards, screens, chairs it just like what you’d expect from a space program. Easily showed the lack of funding over the years, as did the building itself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good deal, apparently they have the climate control down to a T inside the capsule. Because if it were slightly humid at all, to warm or cold by a small degree you would not have gone, it must be perfect, congratulations. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
