And to all a good night.

Pretty awesome.

It's simply amazing to watch! What the young engineers and scientists have done is simply awesome. Like the "huge leap" we took landing/walking on the moon, these accomplishments MATTER as humankind seeks the stars.

For all the negative there is in the world, and there's a LOT of negative, these people are proving that "awesome" triumphs.

My son, his SO, and a group is his friends at S&T stayed up to watch this, and THAT is a good thing. Especially when he knew there were any number of other watch parties going on around Rolla.

Ha! Love the little Earth on the seat to show weightlessness.

I won't be getting up for it, but they'll have docking coverage starting at 3:30am Eastern and will last for a while. Hopefully they'll put out a good summary video.

NASA still streaming Dragon stuff live...

EDIT: Official "Welcoming Ceremony" of Dragon to start in ~10 minutes.

Great stuff. Hopefully we'll soon by flying American astronauts in an American craft via an American rocket.

And, we get to tell the Russians to go **** themselves and the $70 million per seat on Soyuz.

Was fun to go back and watch. It was interesting how they wasted no time getting the supplies out from under the seats.

Careful...careful...careful...careful...careful...GET THE GROCERIES!!

One of the comments in the article below mentioned that some of the testers they were going to use to check for freon leaks on the Dragon's AC unit were shipped up with the cargo.
