I'm watching it on the NASA website as well. I'm quite impressed with it. I was only 6 months old when Neil Armstrong took off and became the first person to set foot on the moon, but don't remember anything of that.

I wonder how long it would take for the "flat earthers" and conspiracy theorists to say it was all "faked"?

And how cool is it that the first stage lands back on a ship at sea and can be reused.

I have a friend who still believes that the moon landing took place on a Hollywood sound stage. And there is no convincing her any different.

*humbug* :-)

Not to mention the genius who named that ship: "Of course I still love you."

Splendid ... But if it is for commercial uses, how hot the Earth will be with 8 milliards of humans wanting to do this trip one time in his live.

How do they account for the 5 laser reflectors astronauts left on the moon that you can still use today?

Of course my Father worked for NASA for 35 years so I have to be lying...

Well, no. Any really good points you can make to disprove her crackpot theory only make you part of the conspiracy. You can't argue with crazy.

Is she also a Flat Earther?

For those that missed it, the live stream is preserved on Youtube so it can be watched later, and fast-forwarded if desired.
