I love it! I have similar memories. And even a couple newspapers sealed and stashed away from the day after the landing.

Watching that landing and first moonwalk live is among the most vivid memories from my childhood. I guess I’m a science geek.

Thanks, Baz!

Artemis- twin sister of Apollo. A lunar deity, among other things. Apropos.

I’ll be taking a break at work and going outside to watch this one. Probably with many, many of my coworkers. :) We’re about 50 miles south so the viewing should be ok, clouds permitting.

Good morning! 10 minute hold at T minus 40 to resolve issue with RS25 engine....

Looks like the delay issue may not be a show (launch) stopper

Derrol Nail, the NASA launch commentator, said that the line of frost on the outside of the core stage appeared to be the result of a crack in the insulating foam, not the underlying “intertank flange.” It does not seem serious.

Let's hope so.

That is what they said on the live stream.

Still on hold.

Check that...flight scrubbed.

Scrubbed

#3 Engine bleed problem

Next date is 9/2 earliest. 12:48pm.

Depends on engine 3 leak being addressed....

Hope we have clear weather on Friday. Too cloudy to see it from here today.

There are literally many thousands of automated checks prior to launch to uncover the slightest anomaly. Which would then require deeper tests, visuals, etc.

I have no doubt they did full testing as if it was a manned mission (except crew biometrics of course).

Looking forward to whenever this baby lifts off!

Launch scrubbed, probably bumbling buffoons behind the scrub. Bring back the real NASA of the 60's and light this candle...

I don't know. I see it a different way. Lots of lessons were learned following Challenger. And, these launches are extremely complicated...so couple that with lack of tolerance on the part of the general public for failure in such a high-visibility event and I don't blame them for caution at all.

I was directly involved in probably 30+ Shuttle flights and spent a lot time at KSC dealing with launch delays and the ramifications, so I've BTDT. You won't find many bumbling buffoons down there. IMHO.

Im a dummy, what is btdt? whats ksc? Blt and KFC? Just a casual observer here. I know back in the 60s they were lighting the candles off more efficiently than the computator controlled rockets of today, too much tech? Ask Von Braun....
