Ha, yeah. Have that taped
4 minutes to go, thanks for the nudge. I'm planning to get the family down to Mahia to experience what you can of a launch live at some stage
That would be pretty cool actually.

Yeah, I reckon.
The photos of the viewing area are classic kiwi space programme

@Kirwan rad.
This shit is blowing my mind. As a kid watching shuttle disasters and being told these were the reusable spacecraft of the future, you had to ask whether we were ever getting off this planet on a meaningful basis.
Musk isn't perfect, but he's driven people to achieve some amazing shit.

Yeah, exactly how I feel. They have landed their rockets 35 times now.

That re-use still blows my mind. It's just incredible how quickly they have fixed problems and evolved to an outstanding record. Kudos to Musk - may have some issues, but blow me down he's made a difference in our world

I still can't get over the fact that the rocket can land back on a platform when it's done. Puts the space shuttle to shame. I wonder if the docking computer can play music too?
