Elon put together a hell of a team of engineers. My wife was actually in discussions with a company she decided she didn’t want to pursue the job as it would involve training the astronauts on a certain tech but on 3rd shift. She didn’t like the idea of having to work those hours. Damn I’d love to meet an astronaut let alone spend some time working with them.
    Any idea how long they're scheduled to stay up? That would have been awesome to be that close to the programs. My Father got to do some work on some of the Project Gemini crafts when he was metalsmithing when Uncle Sam first got ahold of him. Took a lot of pride in that leading up to 69'.
    I think I read they will be at the station for 3 months. Damn so your pops worked for project Gemini? Does your family have any heirlooms from his involvement? Pretty damn cool to say you were involved in the early days.

    Anyway about 19 hours till they dock with the station. The station is moving at 17k mph and they have to dock with the pressure of a kiss. I imagine a lot can go wrong
