It's all links. I checked. I've opened a bug report.

I am all about not letting old engines die, but using an engine that is 60 years old to go to space probably isn't the best idea.

I heard about it on the radio 3 minutes after it happened. I happen to be driving into my neighborhood and I kept seeing people run outside and look up. I guess some neighbors may have thought it happened at Kennedy.

Video is fixed. The embedded videos are breaking from the "last letter being dropped" problem.

That is crazy!

The new markdown can't handle links with a hashtag in the middle of them. I'll file another bug report. That's my fifth for today, I think.

@scottalanmiller - As soon as i hit the submit, it changed and added the href code at the end of the link.... I of course went to change it and lo-and behold my internet quit.
After waiting twenty minutes I gave up.
Thanks for correcting it. -

Thanks for correcting it.No problem
I tend to manually edit posts when I can if it is just a cleanup. I've gotten used to hand editing the markup so no big deal. -
That video from the airplane is amazing. They were really lucky to be there with the camera rolling.

Luck had nothing to do with it. they were there to watch the launch.
