None of this is coincidental. I was watching and thinking how everything we are seeing is modeled after or in some way  influenced by our recent generations of scifi.

Well, thankfully, it wasn’t a Michael Bay Sci-fi film.

This got lost in the news cycle, but is spectacular...

I was halfway hoping either Bob or Doug was going to go “I think I forgot something...”

I haven’t watched 2001 in years. I should rent it and watch it again.

I think that for it’s time the multiple switch panels were needed since automation was not as advanced. All the same functions are being performed but now we trust the computers more than the Astronauts. They’re only there in case something goes seriously worng, and to perform tasks once on the station itself. Love the clean design of the Dragon vehicle .

Their suits were just so stylish. So non-nasa.
