Tuned in for the docking. NASA channel on Roku allows large tv screen viewing. Amazing video quality. 176 meters from docking, turning controls over to ground.

Sure beats seeing mayhem and destruction of cities on Earth.

Was just watching some of it live.

It makes “2001 A Space Odyssey” look like and action-packed space thriller! ;)

I am glad everything appears to be working well. Looking forward to a safe docking.

This takes Me back to the Apollo Missions when I was a Kid. We had just moved to Houston, TX in July. Watched everything I could find on TV, had a Model of the Saturn V Rocket that was about 4’ tall and was separable at the different Stages, had a Lunar Module that would Dock with the Command Module. Pretty Cool for a Boy that just turned 8 while Neil & Buzz were on the Moon. Back when America was riding high and proud.😷

Watched the launch. From ignition that Dragon rises and clears the tower a lot faster than an Atlas 5.
