Yeah pretty crazy stuff for sure, Curt!
If the Mercury astronauts could see what we're doing today, huh?
================
Watch live coverage as SpaceX launches a Falcon 9 rocket with 29 satellites for the company's Starlink internet service. Liftoff from Launch Complex 39A is scheduled at 10:08 p.m. EST (0308 UTC) . The first-stage booster for this mission, B1092, making its eighth flight will land on SpaceX's drone ship 'A Shortfall of Gravitas', stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.
The missions, designated Starlink 6-89 from SLC-40, will take a south-easterly trajectory on departure from Florida's Space Coast.
Our live coverage with commentary from Spaceflight Now's Will Robinson-Smith will start about one hour prior to the first launch.
t-minus 50 minutes......
