This transcends what it is to be America by leaps and bounds. Moments like this tear down any sense of border or boundaries and celebrate the human race and the fact that when we come together we are capable of truly incredible and inspiring things.

Well done, SpaceX. So proud of you. Onward and upward, beyond earth orbit and back to the Moon, Mars, and wherever else you'd like to go.

I don't look at SpaceX's accomplishment as proud to be american, but rather proud to be alive and sentient during this amazing time. That's all I'm getting at I guess.
