I cannot get over the Falcon Heavy launch (and landings) and the breathtaking photos and videos. This video from SpaceX should take you to ~ T minus 60 seconds. (When looking up how to write “T minus,” I found this gem…the transcript from the Apollo 11 launch.)
A very welcome reminder of what humans are capable of. (Including a sense of humor: try saying “Falcon Heavy” as fast as you can. A newer rocket in the fleet is the “Big Falcon Rocket.”)
OK, staying on theme and speaking of gems: must share my all-time favorite LEGO set, which I first saw at my friend Pat Jak’s house. That’s right… it has 1,969 pieces … So nerdy and so cool. If anyone from LEGO is reading this, can you guys come up with a Speedmaster Professional LEGO set, too? 321 pieces, of course (watch nerds out there, are you with me on that last point?).
