Since this guy is from Austria...one time is German Time, the other time is local time in Rosewell.....They have clear weather but little wind in 200 m altitude, that's a crucial hight for the launch.

ah okay, was wondering how big this is in the states guess less of a hype than here in austria. We need this stuff to overcome out complex of being unimportant in the world :) and if than only with a ugly past, The so called Alps complex :)

They just mentioned that the installed cams on the capsules are reds :)

passing the armstrong line at 63k feet. at this altitude without pressurization felix blood would boil. yikes. i am glued to the monitor much like when the Shuttle would launch or land. Going to miss that, but stoked there are programs like this keeping the journeys into space alive. i am not quite old enough but i can imagine what it was like to watch alan sheppard or any of those pioneering astronauts do their thing. balls of steel!!!!! quite jealous of the video downlink too.

I still remember watching Apollo 11 (first landing on the moon) as a little kid on a small black-white Tv....still exiting to witness something like this.

Did anyone notice the monster cameras on the ground which are guided with the help of huge helix antennas.....kloner would be jealous
