God I love space. I just wanna throw those MIT nerds onto the moon and leave 'em there.

We are launching this negro into space so he can make first contact with his gay kinship from outerspace.

Yeah, this mission REEKS of DEI/BRIDGE priorities when it came to the crew. Blame the Biden administration. None the less, it's still an exciting launch.

We are GO FOR COUNTDOWN!

Chances it explodes?

7 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/01 22:33

I give it about a 0.004% chance of explosion.
Or if you want a smart ass answer, 100% chance. The explosions are what propel it upwards, after all :P

Max Q passed, barring any fuel or oxygen leaks, it should be fine from here on out.

11 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/01 22:41

"We don't have the kind of words in the English language to describe this kind of event"
Epic? Awesome???

Anyways, 35~ minutes until the next bit of action, T+50. What did ya'll think of the launch?

13 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/01 22:52

Has it happened yet? Can it be streamed on gikopoipoi?

14 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/01 22:59

The launch has happened, but the video can theoretically can still be streamed on gikopoi, if it supports streaming.

15 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/01 23:12

I'm looking at an animation of a metal phallic object. When does it get to the good part?

16 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/01 23:22

I saw no launch, but maybe I watched it late.

17 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/02 00:13

>>16 Yeah, ya missed it. The CGI animation was from when it was in space and no one could see it from the ground anymore.

18 Name: Nameless : 2026/04/02 03:29

Almost got to see it live from where I was at (I'm in FL), but missed it, I could only see the trail after it had passed and the neighbors told me I missed it. I'm pretty far from the launch site.

I'm in the space-is-fake crowd, but I still like Gundam.
