Pretty cool launch video! Going on right now

That is amazing. They have now made what seemed impossible or at least challenging only a few years ago now look easy to successfully accomplish. That’s why you pay attention in math class boys and girls.
 
They were! The problem has been NASA and Lockheed are still trying to replicate Apollo rather than using a clean slate. SpaceX is opening up a lot of options that NASA gave up on a long time ago.
I watched the SpaceX launch, but I still think the Apollo missions were more fascinating. My brother and I would write letters all the time to NASA asking how the astronauts went to the bathroom in space. They answered every letter by sending us models of the next Apollo mission and the lunar module, autographed pictures of the astronauts for the next mission, and their mission patch. They never did tell us how they went to the bathroom. Later in life, I learned they wore adult diapers. No wonder they were quarantined after a mission. They probably had a bad case of monkey butt.
