America back in space

Just want to say congratulations to NASA and SpaceX for a successful launch sending U.S. astronauts into space from American soil for the first time in 9 years.

We're back!

Fake! Convenient loss of signal when the 1st stage was supposed to land on the drone ship. And why was that shrouding on the second stage moving around in the wind if it was supposed to be in outer space?
Nah, just wanted to be the first in posting some BS that you know is going to happen.
Congrats to SpaceX and NASA and the two astronauts. The launch looked good. I hope they have some video of the 1st stage landing on Of Course I Still Love You (OCISLY)

So, are we going to see a flurry of Crew Dragon/Falcon9 builds?

I hope so. I still don't understand how one can wear glasses on a take-off. They must have it figured out

they only experienced 2 to 3 G during liftoff, so not as much as the shuttle used to endure

Well that's not surprising. That sucker (shuttle stack) was heavy!

I was very surprised at how not shaky the crew looked during ascent.
Everything was still as could be.
I expected camera shaking and seats vibrating and heads wobbling...but nothing.

I think gone are the days of rough ride into space.
Now its like riding a high speed elevator.

I thought the same thing, both guys sitting there with their hands folded for several minutes. I wondered if they were asleep or something.
