@LensOfMae @gfontana767 So awesome that you got to be there! I watched online and it looked pretty sparky 😄 It must’ve looked really cool in person.

Watching the live from @SpaceflightNow while we wait, T-minus 46 minutes and counting.
I was in this same spot for the Crew-2 mission nearly five years ago, still one of the best places to catch a launch. Never gets old being back home. 🚀

Orion Integrity, with the Artemis II crew inside, has JUST CROSSED the halfway point between Earth and the Moon.
From this point, until their journey home, four humans are closer to the Moon than they are from Planet Earth.

I have never called the level of broadcasts that @PhotonEmpress has or the number of launches that she has, but I could not agree with her more. Sometimes you have your plan and you practice your plan on a separate ME in the minutes before liftoff... and at T-0 that fails - so you go (in a split second) to plan B, and that fails too.
Your shots are blocked, your cameras are destroyed or knocked over, a whole side of your IP network goes down, the track you had planned to go to first turns out to be overexposed by 3 stops... All things you tried to plan for, but went wrong. I've been there too many times. I don't fault NASA's TD. They had to make a decision get to something/anything that they could.
When you're staring at 32 cameras on multiple multiviews - and you have to make a split second decision, and your heart is pounding, and you know you have one of your biggest audiences ever, and there's tears in your eyes because humanity is going back to the moon... it's hard.
You do your best. And you look back on it and beat yourself up a little bit, and then you learn from your mistakes. Then you go back out there and try again on the next one.

I don't think there is anyone on the planet who has done more live rocket broadcasts than me. I literally have done *hundreds* of them over the last 18 years. And some of the largest launch broadcasts on the planet too! I say this not to brag, but to convey a level of expertise in launch broadcasts that I think few, if any, can beat. Ok, maybe brag a little 👸 I know a lot of people were not super happy with NASA's coverage, specifically at liftoff. But man, let me tell you... As someone who has done hundreds of these... IT IS FREAKING HARD! I have personally had bad liftoff sequences too. It happens. And it sucks. And I hated it when I did that. To me. And to you. It is hard to convey just how complex liftoff is during a broadcast. It is a moment in time where nearly every view is available, but very few are viable. You never truly know which ones will be viable either, so it's a guessing game and a bit of luck. You have to scan through to find the shots that work, but you only have *seconds* to do this. Seconds. I have learned over the years that a technical director (vision mixer) needs an A and B plan for liftoff. Generally engines -> pass through -> medium -> wide -> super wide -> track scope -> track spot for the A plan. The B plan is usually far easier with engines -> wide -> super wide -> track scope. The switcher control surface needs to be set up to execute these plans extremely quickly. And even if you do all of this, a gust of wind blowing smoke the wrong way can foil the best of plans. It. Is. Hard. I hear ya all, but let's cut NASA some slack here. They have amazing people working the launch. They have many people they need to support in their broadcast including the media, schools, NASA employees, government officials, and the public. It is like getting pulled in a billion different ways all at once. Was liftoff coverage epic? No. I mean, it just wasn't. Will they learn from this and make Artemis III better? I believe they will. I know the people working these things, and they are great. Don't let one launch paint a bad picture here. There is enough space for everyone. If you didn't like NASA's coverage, then @NASASpaceflight, @TLPN_Official, @Erdayastronaut, @SpaceflightNow and more had other, amazing options that may suit your tastes better. We live in a time where you have incredible options. It's awesome and exciting. Oh, and WE HAVE FOUR HUMANS GOING TO THE MOON RIGHT NOW! Lets be excited about that instead!

You know, I've been thinking..
I think the Makeup Update for Roblox is actually a good thing. Realistic avatars are way more #expressive and bring us closer to the #metaverse than ever before.
Honestly it's time to move on from classic avatars and #embrace the #future. $Roblox

If you were born after 19:45:58 UTC on December 19, 1972, you have not been alive during a time when a crewed lunar spaceflight was underway.
This is approximately 75% of the global population.
That could change as soon as Wednesday evening with the planned launch of Artemis II.
Hundreds of thousands of people near Kennedy Space Center will see the launch with their own eyes and likely millions will watch live online.
If you can't make it out in person, I hope you'll tune in and watch as NASA makes its first attempt to send Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen into space and around the Moon this week.
It is not often you have the opportunity to witness a historic moment in real time. Please watch and soak it in, and after launch, look up at the Moon and smile knowing that our great return to the lunar environment is well underway.
Godspeed, Artemis II!

They’ve turned the rockets gay!
Starship is now going to sport a mesh shirt and redecorate Pad B before each launch.

Love that I can now build a blockbuster app in 30 minutes, only for it to be disrupted in 3 months when the brain-computer singularity happens and the world implodes and we’re lying in vats of fluid, orbiting a distant nebula.

@mattvanswol @CharlesGrooms This reminds me SO MUCH of Hurricane Helene.
