### - watching the spacex launch live?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21X5lGlDOfg

the flight crew are 2 very experienced dudes, but even so it still takes
guts of steel to ride this 'new' + untested-for-humans firecracker up to
the space-station...

T-minus 60-minutes now... and they's getting a go for launch this time
(was canceled last time due to adverse weather etc)

cool :)

### - they made it + enjoyed that :)

what was cool was being able to kinda see-out the window all the way up to orbit?

a very smooth ride too as it goes, textbook, even made it look easy!

why they have to stay in orbit for 19 more hours before docking with iss
am not quite sure tho, i know they have to line-up with it and everything,
but 19 hours?

no doubt it'll all be explained in endless detail to us via the news
anyway but for now am still enjoying the puzzle heh...

not bad anyway for a bunch of monkeys, not bad ;)

### - actually saw this thing sailing right across the london sky at
around 10.15pm last night, quite bright and clearly visible to the eye for several minutes, and which looked like a plane seen at night albeit
without any of the more usual flashing/pulsing lights planes have...
