Jared Isaacman’s ears, guys!
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Yesterday I tuned in just as Jeremy Hansen was trying to troubleshoot camera settings on their GoPro with Mission Control.

I love that they can get through Trans Lunar Injection maneuvers just fine but little tech support trivialities extend to NASA missions.
i saw a lot of what they streamed today, and boy i was super exited about it. I was also moved with them naming a moon crater after one of the guy´s wife who passed away recently.

Yes, that was a very poignant moment.

Saw that moment live and felt some emotions. Then following that, you get Victor Glover's vivid descriptions of the moon.

This crew is perfect.

Splashdown day. I will be missing the live stream while I am on a camping trip. I'm sure it is bittersweet for these astronauts to return home after what looks like an epic journey.

Trying not to think about that

One of my favorite things about this live stream has been the songs that wake them up. This morning they had a track from Live blasting through the Integrity speakers. I believe the whole playlist is out there somewhere but I haven't sought it out.

I just saw an Insta of Brian Cox explain that earth is 400,000,000x closer in size to the size of the entire observable universe than it is to the smallest thing in the universe, the Planck length, and I can't wrap my head around that.
