Nuts. [/quote] the question is--why do you think a rocket taking off is anything special They've supposedly been launching rockets since the 50s If they went to the Moon & back---why should people to get fake-excited about this non-event Rockets are old technology anyway Returning to using rocket after the Space shuttles--just proves that space shuttles were FAKE [/quote] Because it's still impressive, not to mention beautiful. I appreciated todays especially since I'd never seen that jellyfish effect-I honestly thought it had blown up. I also was able to see the boosters coming down to the ocean to land. It's just cool. Not everything needs to be looked at through a skeptical lens. It's OK just to enjoy watching something because it's beautiful. :hf: [/quote] :Jay: [/quote] you really believe space jellifish prove that a rocket was actually launched Have you heard of special effects The Russians have supposedly been launching rockets to the space station for years now--no-one ever got excited about them Why launches at night Easier to fake [/quote] You're ridiculous. The launches go at all times of the day. You hear and feel the sonic boom. With that said, I won't waste more of my time arguing with someone halfway around the world doubting what I just saw from my own backyard. [/quote]

It's the second manned mission in the Dragon Capsule, and the first NASA flight of humans with the reusable Falcons.
Hoping the sky is clear down here in FL to see it.
Enjoy!

NASA coverage begins at 1:30 a.m. Eastern
SPACEX Coverage usually begins 15 min before launch so by 5:34a.m. Eastern.
I'll post both youtube streams, or at least the SpaceX.
