This guy takes me back to my first view of a Titan3 satellite launch from Vandenberg’s SLC-4 back in 1970.
Of course, those were classified NRO missions, so the only unofficial spectators were family members and spies;
and most of the time it was too foggy to see anything.
Every American owes it to themselves to go see a SpaceX rocket launch.
They’re a reminder that there’s more to life than politics and problems.
It would be useful to make this a field trip for public schools.
There is no better demonstration of what makes America special. pic.twitter.com/kuvmCkvRyt

An absolutely incredible pace of progress 🚀 pic.twitter.com/gIZWOYXaqX
