    Besides this being a commercial company flight, there is one other glaring difference I noticed from the start.
    When it was the Apollo missions (I'm that old) , and everyone was anticipating the lift off, the news people knew when to STFU and listen to the flight control instead of talking right over it.

    He was truly in awe of what he had just seen and felt, that was amazing to watch. I know he didn't get us there and he isn't the first man to travel into space and he is an actor, but he drove that dream starting almost 60 years ago, the dream that someday regular people could go to space. And we owe that gratitude to him and the rest of the Enterprise crew. Star Trek has been bringing that dream to millions of kids (and adults) for decades, and it began with him, and he just lived it. My grandfather worked for NASA during the '60s on the moon landing, and my cousin works for Blue Origin, but there's still something absolutely wonderful and exciting about the fact that Captain Kirk has made it to space. Congratulations Mr. Shatner, I'm glad you're here to live that dream!
