Seeing how massive the Saturn V is in person is amazing

I totally agree with this. I was amazed at the size of the Saturn V when I visited KSC.

Last year, I had training at NASA where we were in the building where the Astronauts lived in and prepared prior to launches. They allowed us to privately tour the apartments and the room where the Astronauts would get into their space suites prior to launch. It has been left completely in tact from the original space program. It was an awesome experience.

I think it is pathetic that we've allowed this nation to degrade to the point where we can no longer launch a manned spacecraft. It is pathetic! Our political leadership sucks and has for twenty years. It is our own fault for allowing this happen. We keep electing these jerks who do nothing but look the country.

A Titan IV launched tonight at 6:55 PM. We have great weather today, it should be easily seen from SAB.
