Nzoner's Game Room>Space Exploration megathread
DaFace 09:40 AM 06-01-2014
Since a number of cool things are happening in space exploration these days, we'll widen the scope of this thread a smidge. Conversation about all things space exploration are welcome, whether it be from NASA, SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, or anyone else. Chances are most of the discussion will still be about SpaceX since they love to make things public and fun, but nothing's off limits. I'll eventually get around to modifying the OP to include resources for other companies too, but in the meantime, feel free to post any cool stuff you run across.

As I said before, it just looks plain bizarre to have so much "stuff" on that pad compared to everything they've done before.

Really, as I think about it, it's modern (unmanned) rockets that are the outlier. Growing up, I was pretty used to every launch being on a big, complicated complex like 39A. It's just that lately we've gotten used to launch pads being pretty streamlined and minimalist.

As is their technical webcast. No "announcers", but awesome to hear the comms and see different angles. I usually keep both up.

I'll watch this one from my balcony. See how my dogs react to the Sonic Boom.
