yeah, the replay video showed it all, no way can I listen to that lass again. I was saying to 'er indoors that its nice to see the openness from the relevant parties via tv coverage. Early NASA vetted kill switch videos, SpaceX opening the frontiers and now Blue Origin. Gimme Gimme Gimme!!!
Now all we need is Chinese, Indian, Lilliputian, French, ESA, Mesopotamian, Walmart and others to show what they are up to and we may be happier. Well, maybe .......................
And a BIG thank you to Roscosmos for all your help when NASA couldn't get it right post Shuttle when they should have built more not cancelled whole programme. Its their fault designs were tempered by haste.

I always said you were spaced out
Being an old git I have been 'into space stuff' since Mercury missions; I hope I live long enough to watch humans on Mars

NASA SLS Hot Fire Test Failure Blamed on Hydraulic SystemLast weekend, the final and most important test for the Space Launch System rocket that will support the Artemis program took place. It was supposed to be an eight-minute firing of all four RS-25 engines of the core stage, but the entire test lasted for just a little over a minute after the engines shut off on their own.

NASA in Alabama: No decision yet on Artemis test fireNASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center is “still looking at data to see if we have enough to go forward” from this month’s prematurely shut down test fire of its Space Launch System four engines, the center director said Friday.
The engines were fired Jan. 16 “for the first time ever in this configuration,” Singer told a meeting of Downtown Huntsville, Inc..
The test ran “about 67 seconds” instead of the planned eight minutes. “I’ll admit we wanted it to go to the full duration,” Singer said. But she emphasized this was “not just test hardware but flight hardware, so we had to do tender loving care with it.”
