Rocket

So, the Artemis rocket went into space - finally. 

As I mentioned, my friend Kristen lives south of Cape Canaveral - and on the beach. She sees many a launch without leaving her back patio or the shore. 

This launch was no different, except that it happened at 01:00. 

While I'd love have seen that launch, I'd have been asleep hours before. Perhaps the rumble would have awoken me. 

....oh that's a lie.

Even yesterday I overslept, which is almost never the case. And not by a little, but by about two hours. I mean, luckily I was on day two of jury duty, so my day started later than if I were going to work. 

....and I got texted at 'the duty' because apparently I set up my blog to post at the wrong time. 

Still, to see the most powerful rocket launch ever must have been something to hear, feel, see. 

Honestly, I haven't read a lot about it, but I'm assuming since I've seen no headlines otherwise, that it didn't blow up (ooooh, they found Challenger debris in the Atlantic - like decades later) and I haven't heard of any snafus........so maybe all is good 

This seems to be all NASA and no MUSK.  That makes me happy. I'd say it doesn't take a lot, but we all know that. is a big fat lie.
