You can watch them land on the landing pads at KSC or Adams but the downward thrust on the two drone ships shakes them about too much to maintain the satellite video link

Did he bop his head getting out of Endeavour? I saw him wiping his forehead a few times and wasn't sure if he was sweating or bleeding... But I presume the ISS is climate controlled!

He certainly looked like he had given his head a wallop! Poor chap having to plaster on a smile and go straight to a broadcast when I bet he just wanted to swear a lot!

Over 50 years on from the moon landing, this was totally awesome from start to ISS.

Turned out the abort, just prolonged the excitement. Thanks to all the ‘experts’ posting links and providing explanations along the way. This is the true dibb community in action !

I wonder what space travel will look like in another 50 years?

Maybe that's why Bob went first... "I just have a few choice words I don't want anyone to lip read so go ahead..." 😄

Absolutely 100% agree! Without this thread I would not have had a clue how to follow this and it’s been such a great thing for me and DH to re-engage with our 16 year old DS! Thank you Dibbers
