Kinda makes you wonder, if the covid masks aren't any good for the fuel leaks. Do they really do anything to stop the virus?

The problem probably isn't with the camera, but with they being at sea, where the internet connection isn't that good.


Hatch opening coming up.

Yes. Pretty successfully. Those countries, where wearing masks had been commonplace already before COVID-19, did get pretty easy through the pandemic...

Both astronauts out and apparently well.
The End.

I've watched live news broadcasts in 1080p from the middle of the ocean. It was a few mins behind live because of lag, but not sure why SpaceX cant do the same.

When SpaceX successfully sent the spacecraft to ISS everyone said that American space flights are back, but last week NASA booked one seat on the Soyuz rocket. So what happened to Dragon, won't it fly anymore?

"The seat is a backup for NASA in case its upcoming ride with SpaceX runs into technical problems, and it suggests the agency is proceeding cautiously!" From 'the Verge'.
Seems to be just in case. Kinda seems like unnecessary costs though...
