This is what I’ve been looking for- dates, times, statistics. The only fun stats are Space exploration stats. Thank you for this epic sauce.
Let’s go!
Can’t wait for Polaris Dawn too!

Sloth zero-g indicator was pretty cute.
Mission Control Audio webcast set to private. I definitely did not download it while it was live. Do not PM me if you want a copy. :)
