    It was great - I could see it all the way in Orlando just like the old Space Shuttle. The landing was pretty cool too.

    Watched it live, epic, crowd chants were the Space X employees gathered to watch launch!

    Cones will move, but no air to transmit sound! Guess it will run till it dies. If aliens want to listen, they will need the right dongle!

    They also put a fentometer part cut disc in the car that contains Isaac Asimov's Expedition in it.

    That little disc, issue holographic storage can hold 360 TB of data. Insane!!!
