Looks like a successful test of the Orion Launch Abort System this morning. Which I'd seen it live but the clip I caught was decent.

Weather permitting!
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:Sat is backup day.
Cool, didn't know that.
Quoted from Methos:Have the astronauts always been sitting in the capsule 3 hours pre-launch?
No, just maybe one hour -ish.
Yes indeed, was very interesting listening to the post scrub banter as to why we could not just wait a few moments. SOOO many variables.

Saw this and thought it was pretty cool.
I once saw a B52 traveling the same direction and above us for a while once from an airplane window, but nothing this cool!

This is a very cool video illustration of the old Apollo CM / LM - docking / undocking procedures. As I'm watching it, I'm reminding myself, almost nothing on those spacecraft existed before the moon shots. DAMN!

Quoted from mof:What about number 1 and number 2?
Can't find where I read it, but they sleep in the chairs they were launched in and have only 1 "out in the open" toilet they get to share, seems it at least has a curtain for visual privacy, Auditory... not so much.
