Good on those that have the desire and the funds.

I have zero desire to leave this earth...hell as much as I do it..I don't even like to fly lol. Looks like one hell of a ride though!

Watch the doc. Pretty damn cool deal. They raised a ton of money for St. Jude.

One of the civilians on the ship is a bone cancer survivor that spent a lot of time at St. Jude when she was a child and then became a PA for St. Jude. Youngest person in space and first with a prosthetic. Inspiring.

I’m a huge space fan, but the excitement of the 1950’s and 60’s won’t be repeated. Ever.. Sadly
