    BTW the NASA and CNN launch coverage videos SUCKED (IMO). Glitchy, bad resolution... this guy is one of the best rocket youtube channels out there and his coverage/video was much clearer. Starts at 6:49:30.

      Last evening after the burn to leave earth orbit and send the crew towards the moon (at the walking pace of close to 25,000 km/hr) the crew broadcast a short Q & A with earth. What really struck me was the clarity of the comm. Nothing like the crack and pop of the AM broadcasts during the Apollo programme. It was if the crew was broadcasting from the next room.

        Yeah that was nice. Only a few seconds delay, not much worse than the delay during news interviews

            I really, really want to know what happened with the NASA official broadcast during the launch. An absolute fumble of video angles and directing. Did the director panic? I'd say 75% of the first 20 seconds was almost worthless, and they were showing the crowd when the solid rocket boosters separated.

                    I wonder how she makes a sandwich in zero gravity.

                      From what I gathered from today’s 1 am (EDT) crew interview with Canadian media, Christina Koch also holds the mission’s plumber’s ticket in addition to being a P. Eng (Electrical).
