Watched a bit of the live stream.

Am I the only one who thinks that this rocket looks like something else?

Brought to you by Pfizer…Now we know where the Blue in Blue Origin came from.

[George K]

The talking head said that the "astronauts" are not wearing helmets because Blue Origin wants to give their customers the optimal space experience.

Customers...

@george-k To be fair, isn't this where you add your "and you wear a helmet, why?" comment?

BTW... Shatner is 90? Wow.

It's on again - 10 minutes to go

I'm nervous... I keep expecting a disaster with this new travel method.

It will happen. Only a matter of time.

[89th]

So far so good. Is it too demanding of me to expect a nice HD live stream from within the capsule?

[89th]

Those drone shots are so awesome, it honestly looks like fake CG!

[LuFins Dad]

Touchdown looked a little hard.

[Mik]

I am so envious of Shatner.

[Doctor Phibes]

I was nervous watching that. It all looks good now they're down.

I am so envious of Shaatner.

That guy is absolutely incredible for 90 years old.

[LuFins Dad]

So which power did Shat get? Elasticity? Fire? Strength and rocky skin?
