watching now, my kid's so interested in space and space flight but i can't bear to have him watch this with me in case something happens :(
probably why there is such a disinterest in such a momentous event, parents trying to protect their kids.
I'll never forget how i felt during challenger and I didn't even see it live.
Godspeed brave voyagers to the cosmos!
- I'm conflicted in watching it live with my 2 young boys for the same reason.
I remember watching the challenger explode live at school. It was pretty heavy...fooler - because one of our teachers was in the Teacher in Space project.fooler
- just rewind the feed a few minutes and monitor on the phone.uan
- ended up watchig it with him, glad i did, I explained to him that things could go wrong and we lost astronauts in the past so to be prepared. he loved it_niko
- ^ Good you shared it with him. I remember watching the shuttle take-offs at school for years. Even with the tragedy, it was inspiring.formed
- It's something you can share with him forever and could be the first in an impressive move to space.formed

Bravo humans. We are both amazing and awful in equal parts.
The first stage landing was so cool. Impressive.

Seems like such a big deal because Nasa forgot how to put humans into space?
- The USA forgot to invest in America's mission into space, not NASA. By cutting and cutting space budgets, the US invested in creating wars all around the world.utopian

- more like it took private ingenuity to figure out how to do it a fraction of the cost.hotroddy
- hotroddy is right. NASA was underfunded unlike a larger private companymonospaced
- Obama’s fault. I mean imagine having the gall to use govt money to repair the country after the GFC and not pump into NASA...damn Kenyan.BusterBoy
- that same narrow minded argument was popular during the apollo missions. But you take that progress for grantedhotroddy
- not to mention you'd be feeling pretty disconnected from the world downunder without those satelights in orbit!hotroddy
- What.are you all talking about? Aren't people going to the ISS on a pretty regular basis?nb

- This guy's great. I really want to see what he could do with some *proper* rocket engines, scaled up.Nairn
- that's so cool_niko
- Just watched this vid now - he's totally, right about democratisation of his industry, but the iterative software/3d printing/etc applies to so much more too.Nairn
- Inspiring.
His YT channel:
https://www.youtube.…Nairn - Fucking errant comma.Nairn
- nice hobby.utopian
- If you could buy a 'toy' rocket that took off and landed exactly like spacex, how much would you be willing to pay? He's gonna make $$$$$$$$'s once he nails it.shapesalad
