So, here it is! The first ad-free Erik Klug edit in the history of WAI. There are still a few quirks like too loud music and a late release. Give him some credit though! There's a lot involved in editing a WAI episode!
Final Ad-supported release might have less loud music! Working on it! But it is getting late over here... ^^
Thank you all for your support and have a great week!!!
For those who might have missed it yesterday and do not want to watch an almost 10 hour stream, here's the cut version of yesterday's event!
SpaceX's Starship SN10 performed its high altitude test flight in Boca Chica Texas. We of course watched it unfold live and here is the cut version for those who do not wish to watch an almost 10 hour live stream!
For convenience I also added time stamps to the actual live stream!
Have a great day and thank you ...
