Well, in a world that is going to hell, it was exciting to have something progressive and amazing happening. America’s first manned launch in many years.
After a failed attempt, we were excited to watch the countdown.
Snuggling up and watching the wonders of science, engineering and humanities ability to overcome.
I thought so much about my grandparents. They would have loved this. I wish they were with us watching. Mom and I talked while it was happening, and cried and missed them. It was so cool.
