Too bad. Would have been pretty cool. I emailed them to see if someone who applied was eligible if they planned to pursue a master's in one of the required fields. No luck.

The raptor engine in the SN4 was also destroyed.

Looking at the live feed, this sucks. No visibility after launch.

E: Now it looks lovely lol. F for Florida. Should move the launches to California or somewhere in the desert.

Looks good, 70s to go.

1.8 million people watching the stream on NASA youtube alone.
Holy shit.
3.5m on SpaceX.

probably close to 10m people who'll watch this within the next 20 minutes

It would be interesting if they explained why it takes 19 hours to get to the the space station on stream.... well, I find the topic interesting, but most people... their eyes would probably glaze over lol.

I'm only guessing but is it a fuel efficiency thing?

I'm in awe of how smooth this went. It looked like a normal launch, which is a great thing. Now if SpaceX can get 2-3 launches going within months at different sites, that would really be something.

Would be my guess too. Kerbal space program is really good at teaching you about this kind of maneuver.

I assume its because of the difficulty of getting 2 objects being flung around the globe at high speeds to meet up at similar enough speed to enable docking.
Takes a few loops around the earth to line that up
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Yeah transfers from one orbit to another orbit are complicated and generally time consuming. Being at the same time at the same place as the ISS isn't enough... you need to have a similar enough velocity that only a small burn is needed to adjust to the ISS' orbit.
