Yeah, who would have thought that not competing for billions of dollars in launch contracts would result in less hostility?  ::)

Why did he stoped recording :(
A little bit better optics and he could record sep.

Probably the limit of the camera's recording period.

The advice I received is to watch the launch live. just point the camera.. i.e. watch the LV with your own eyes and not via the lenses of the camera.. I was happy I took that advice..

So what was the deal with that weird clock graphic that kept coming up in the SpaceX webcast?

No big problem -- just a minor clock-up ... ;)

Look at the minute hand. Then look at the second hand. Then look at the mission elapsed time.

Kind of like the stopwatch on 60 Minutes.  ;)

Yes!  A belated congratulations to SpaceX and the pad crew from me. I'm celebrating with a California-influenced Margarita right now.  ;)

Great pics of the erector post-launch. Looks like it held up well, aside from the upper umbilicals. The black netting is completely gone.

Such good sentiment between SpaceX and Orbital there!  Class acts!

Blue origin is a bit left out though. #unicorns

They would be 'in' if BO would actually start launching stuff into orbit on their own.
