I've just tuned into the docking and caught this massive bloody speech about how amazing they all are and how amazing SpaceX is.
Is this a case of the Emporer's new clothes? I mean the Russians have been doing this mundanely over the past decade.
And their suits are shit. Especially the wellies.

The absolute fucking state of this macho macho man. Is that a hand or has he just seen a mouse? They're playing you can't always get what you want at the end of his speech.Last edited by The Awesome Berbaslug!!!; 30-05-2020, 21:53.

By the time she is old enough to be an astronaut, it won't be that dangerous.

six minutes to launch. It should be visible about three or four minutes after that.

20.22 UK time on Saturday is, I believe, the rescheduled launch.

It's highly unlikely to be televised, because a) there's not going to be that much to see. And b) there's a really good chance that this is going to be delayed and delayed, because they need for there to be good weather, simultaneously at all the places there the capsule might land in the event of an abort.

They usually are, if you mean livestreamed, so I don't see why not

Is the SpaceX launch on Wednesday night going to be televised? I was kind of hoping that in 2020 part of it would be live cams both internal and external that we could watch the whole journey from launchpad to ISS, including the orbits to rendezvous.

ISS due to pass over in approximately 5 minutes, but sky almost completely overcast here in Ireland.
