By a coincidence, I'm streaming the first episode of "The Monkees" in the other room.

There was also an Air Force Payload on board but the release wasn’t shown on the Video like the Israeli Lander and the other Satellite.

Amazing stuff and those Space X guys make it look easy.

The Booster landing on the Drone Ship was really something to see. It was picture perfect.

For all us old folks who remember watching the Moon Landing nearly 50 Years ago it is quite entertaining.

Of course, we all imagined a Moonbase and a Rotating Wheel Space Station (like in 2001) would have been built years ago.

Although the Air Force package is classified someone posted the logo on the body of the satellite ...

"Shades of “You Only Live Twice”."
Yep. Without discussing any tech the number of ways you could take out satellites with low tech (once in orbit) is scary.

Chances C, R and us are doing it? 100%. Screw gps but save the interweb please. ;-)

That day in 1969 was a pretty good day. :^) "Houston. Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed." We wuz poor, but having a black and white TV was pretty much a perfect fit for Apollo.

Space Station Freedom should still be built, and dedicated to President Reagan (and maybe jointly to JFK to *really* piss off the Demagogic Party).
