I couldn't sleep, I was so excited for this launch! So I got up and did laundry and got breakfast. Finally tuned in to Everyday Astronaut. I was amazed by his reaction. He started off guarded, then got more and more excited, like me! Then SpaceX actually caught the booster and he about lost it! Then they soft landed the Starship and after it toppled, a spectacular explosion as it unzipped from the horizontal impact! I had tears in my eyes and was yelling "Go! Go! Go!". It was just like the Apollo days, and even Gemini, "when our rockets always blew up" and every launch was tense. The engineers at SpaceX are brilliant. The management is brilliant. Gwynne Shotwell in particular deserves credit. She gets launch contracts, runs herd on the cats that are genius programners and engineers, and manages the whole place. Elon deserves credit for his visionary insights and hiring the best people, especially Gwynne. Space hasn't been this exciting in a long time! On to Rocket #6!
