So, remember that launch announcement I reblogged just a few days ago? The first successful private industry space launch ever?

Well, half by accident, I actually ended up at the Kennedy Space Center today, where I not only got to see (from a distance) the launchpad (#40 - it’s one of those blocky buildings that’s hovering in the distance) which SpaceX leased for their Dragon takeoff, but they were showing a live video feed during one of their presentations of the capsule being docked with the ISS, which occurred this morning.

Plenty more space-tech porn pics to come!

(Second funny thing - on a whim, we decided to watch MIB 3 tonight, and what’d you know, half the movie was about Cape Canaveral and the Apollo moon launch!)
