The worm logo gives me interstellar vibes

[malcpkim]

Sure good to see American astronauts getting ready to go back into space from American soil. Godspeed on this inaugural manned space flight with joint operations of SpaceX and NASA.

[cooperallen]

no clue why but this totally gave me goosebumps, i’m so ready for this

[ansarnevrekar]

Very big moment for USA good luck from India

[Newsthink]

I was thinking about how historic this moment truly is: First launch from US soil in almost nine years and the first a private company, rather than a national government, will be sending astronauts into space. Can’t wait to see what this means for the future of space travel for all!

Just thinking of all the great space pioneers that have gone before, and helped push us forward to this exciting launch...

“Fly like a falcon” a inspiration of “fly like an eagle” during first ever shuttle launch

[dangerousbutdoable]

[adrianaadnan]

It is crucial that american space force protect space n iss from bullies

[lbc]

How many times is this ship been tested?

[RTD]

“Let’s light this Sorry Alan Shepard, just had to say it!!

[deangriffin]

Hope there is some good inside footage of the launch also! Just looks so much more spacous than the Starliner and the Soyuz. Good luck SpaceX!

[greensky]

What’s up with this antiquated music..? There are better ways to do it.

[Mpwr]

This launch will change news stories on Wednesday can't wait to see.

I thought NASA said no grid fins or landing legs for this manned launch. The idea being fewer parts that might fail.
