    That was history being made!
    They caught the heavy booster exactly as planned on the first attempt.

    Next, they’re going to do more flight and maneuverability tests with Starship and then will land it in the Indian Ocean.

    Keep watching, this flight isn’t over yet.

              I remember in July of 1969, there was a rumor (a conspiracy theory, really) that we did something even cooler. There was even some black & white footage of men supposedly walking on the moon. I was at a remote, rural location where TV reception was barely possible with a big rooftop antenna.

              A community of a few dozen families were all jammed into the 'TV room' of our local community center. After, I remember looking up at the night sky on the short walk home. Very rural, virtually zero light pollution. Practically every night we'd look at the stars and the moon, I can never forget the view of the Milky Way.

              Well, the moon was clearly visible, and I can tell you I saw NO MEN on the moon. Believe me, I tried. So take it from me, it NEVER HAPPENED. Fake News!

              Seriously, I can never forgot looking up at the sky that night. Unforgettable. We're supposed to be on schedule to return in 2026, but I'll believe that when I see it.

              Thanks for the video.

                  I just watched NASA launch the SpaceX Falcon Heavy from Kennedy Space Center for the Europa Clipper Mission.
                  I should have posted a link to that launch as well but didn't think about it until just before the launch and by then it was too late.
