I'm lucky enough to have seen a Space Shuttle launch from the Cape. It was amazing, and it made me feel connected to the future. Weird thing to say I know, but thats how I felt. Can't wait to go back and see another one. But still, watching SpaceX today on Youtube today was absolutely thrilling. I even applauded to myself. Congratulations Elon Musk.

It's too bad you didn't watch it, you would have probably liked it. If you are interested there are lots of recap videos on youtube. Sorry if this kind of thing isn't interesting to you but you don't have to call me names.
