    I sat on the floor in front of the TV watching every Apollo mission, fifty plus years later, its still an epic experience!

    Jessie and John (Insprucker) are my two favorite launch hosts! They ALWAYS exude excitement, no matter how "routine" these launches seem to be these days! Well done SpaceX!! Can't wait to see the candles lit tomorrow!!! Go Starship!! ๐Ÿš€

    The landing of stage one is as impressive as the whole mission. It never gets old. I have watched every Starlink Mission there has been, even the bad ones. I love it and wish I had worked there when younger...
  • @planetsec9
    Is it just me or was this the best looking Starlink mission in a while? ๐Ÿ‘€Absolutely beautiful views of a cloudy blue Earth and you get a really good edge on look at the atmosphere when the booster was coming in for landing, just amazing sights! ๐ŸŒŽ And fairing deploy is a lot more exciting now with the new camera position! Also 18:20 ! please show that deployment if you have the video for it the new V2 mini deployment mechanism is really cool to see! ๐Ÿ›ฐ
  • The launch schedule of SpaceX this year is so damn exciting! Really feels as though this IS the future whenever you see the boosters land. Just amazes me every time!
  • I love it! Go SpaceX team! What I once thought was impossible is now routine! All of you who work there have my boundless respect and admiration. At 67 years old I know I am just seeing the beginnings of what you can do. I hope to see a starship on Mars during my days. Bravo ๐Ÿ‘ and thank you from Asheville, NC
