As SpaceX's C212 (Crew Dragon Freedom) was phasing its way towards an ISS rendezvous earlier today (their 20th human space mission, and NASA's first ever Friday-the-13th human launch), they also passed a very different milestone. A video by "Mr Beast" in which he visited Starbase (among other things) exceeded 100,000,000 views on You Tube.

I was especially glad to see the scene at 21:59 and was saying "and that's just the top 2/5 of the overall rocket". No matter how often you remind yourself of the size of the thing, it's never enough!

P.S. I checked, and it's actually a little over 2/5. More like 42% (my favourite 2-digit number!).
