The NASA+ stream died for me "404 The cosmic object you were looking for has disappeared beyond the event horizon." I much preferred the old IBM stream they used to use. Shame, but at least it sounds like the launch was a success.

Hopefully we'll see humans back on the Moon, and cheap reusable human-rated spacecraft on Mars, before then.

There's an economics 404 too: https://www.ft.com/404#humor * Moral Hazard: Showing you this page would only encourage you to want more pages. * Theory of the second best: The best outcome was unachievable, so you have arrived here instead.
