They look like Empire Proctologists leaving the operating room after performing a successful colonoscopy on Darth Vader.

I swear to Christ they need to get Elon the fuck out of marketing. I feel like I'm watching a bad episode of Star Trek.

Agreed... The disparity is hilarious. The spacesuits look like they were designed by set designers from the original Star Trek but the capsule looks like it was designed by Apple...

Those suits are supposedly super comfortable, but yeah the boots look like the shit I wore when milking cows.

Watched the whole thing go down yesterday while setting up my trusty old explorer. I mean, what other guitar would fit the moment?
Legit LOL when the little purple dinosaur floated across in front of the camera and bro starts kicking at it to get it out of the way.
Seriously though, what a tremendous feeling watching that initial moment off the pad. ANd in nine minutes they’re going sixteen thousand miles an hour. Lord. What a rush that must be.
It’s one of the few truly joyous moments I’ve been able to witness in the last couple years.

Yep - great achievement in the midst of massive world turmoil. I'm so glad to be able to celebrate this, at least.
Docking that thing was spectacular. Love that they named it Endeavor.
Now, if they could stop trying to blow up Tejas with their new Starship.
