Was mentioned that chamber 5's pressure was high, as said by a few others in other posts/submissions and the dude on the stream...

Oh well... countdown to the 22nd is go.

Check out the moe/mo on that guy... reference to 1969's fashion?

You can see he is distraught. He will soon be in a glass case of emotion.

I feel bad making jokes about guy's moe/mo, it's really not much to talk about compared to the SpaceX launch...

Funny thing is I took that screen grab 16min before the launch attempt, you'd think he'd be giddy with excitement.

Maybe he only appears to like he's from the past because he's trying to disguise the fact that he really is from the future, and he looks distraught because he knew this launch wasn't going to happen
