JoeSchmuckatelli Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) <looks at the broad time zone difference between the first three > Why does the ESA insistence to put Paris (or anything French) seem extraneous, unnecessary and pandering?

Entropian Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 HYPE! that launch is ridiculously early for me but I don't care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minmus Taster Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Really though this is going to be insane, fourteen years of very public delay's are finally paying off...in one way or another And a daily hopper comic or two to make this occasion even more amazing: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can’t bring myself to believe that Webb is ACTUALLY in that fairing, ACTUALLY about to launch…this thing has been in development longer the I’ve been alive, ain’t that something?

So much flat acting and weird casting choices. Tropes for characters. Not great CG or set design. By comparison, Witcher is a different genre.

JoeSchmuckatelli Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Let's all take a moment to reflect that this thread has been alive since 2016: Thanks Streetwind... what a long strange trip its been! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brotoro Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Given the number of U.S. taxpayers, and if we split the cost evenly, I apparently have about $70 riding on this launch. Seems like a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gargamel Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 I just watched CRS-24 in person, and if it had gone KABLOOEY! I might have cheered at the awesomeness of seeing a RUD in person. but this...... no..... not like this..... not like this. Anyways, Alarm is set, and I look forward to seeing this.

Wheel Of Time is extremely well-known in certain circles, and is probably nearly unknown outside them. Meanwhile, compare to Harry Potter or The Martian. Or more outside the genre, The Terminator or Die Hard or Avatar or Star Trek, etc. Edited December 25, 2021 by mikegarrison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
