Hope all goes well. Just remember Musk introducing the new Tesla truck and the shatter proof windows.

First swing of the hammer and the glass shatters

They are calling for a 50/50 chance of launch today because of weather.

I have a buddy who is in secret service and he’s been texting me cool pics and videos all week.

we were thinking of taking a 90 minute drive north today to the beach to watch the take off. Not sure why we didn’t?

Amazing. What an awesome sight. In 1984 I watched a shuttle liftoff and was 1 mile away. It was like seeing God, the awesomeness of it.

This was pretty cool.

I remember when I was in college, we drove over to see an nighttime Launch and was pretty awesome.

it was around midnight and it looked like daylight

Don had little to do with this but NASA did.. In 2011 NASA gave spaceX a contract to develop a manned craft at the direction of President Obama.
