    A couple questions:

    Anyone watch the SpaceX broadcast of the Crew-1 launch and notice the semi-circular timeline of events that scroll across the bottom of the screen missing?

    Also, while Dragon is docked, Kate Rubins implied she would get a chance to check it out when speaking with Mission Control. Does anyone know if the Russians can also check it out? Like enter it and look around?

    I imagine they have the capability to access it. Now whether or not the russians taking a peak is "authorized" or not is prob a question up for debate

    They’d probably marinate it in vodka and then blow themselves up when they tried to smoke it.

    Glad I’m not the only one.

    I’ve tried to google it, no explanation.

    I hope it comes back. Always thought it was a nice touch.

    This one is returning to base, almost exactly where it launched from.

    Crew 1’s booster is listing! Not one of their finest landings!
    I’d take a bad booster landing over anything directly crew related any day!

    That’s not where it landed, initially. Must be rough seas..
