• John Posey being interviewed, NASA's liaison (so to speak) to help SpaceX design the capsule to make things seamless for them to partner for safe flights!
  (I had to miss a bit of this interview, but will be a great listen to if they highlight this one.. was a Shuttle Propulsion Officer, worked with Falcon 9, and now Crew Dragon, and is going into the LCC now to hop on console!)

• Very cool design on the Crew-6 patch.  All of the crew have an affinity for sea-fairing boats, the colors behind the sail represent the Earth, Moon, and Mars.  Plus, the nod to Dragon with the bow of the boat being a dragon head!

• Great tokens from Raj. Worked with the Dice Men in 1995 in Korea. Wearing those dice in uniform is not authorized.  They still do it anyway. I wish he had said coin and would have owed a round...

• As expected, SpaceX stream has started. It's 720p upscaled to 1080.
  
  Official 4K stream has the same artifact that's affecting NASA UHD for the last while with broken 2SI interleave.

• SpaceX is starting up their coverage at this time.
