Quoted: What was the issue with the suit? I couldnt hear because my kids wouldnt shut the fuck up View Quote Bob's suit pressure was a little low after they did the checks on it when they suited up before docking. They wanted him to check out things as he was taking it off to see if something wasn't fastened and sealed correctly. |

Quoted: What was the issue with the suit? I couldnt hear because my kids wouldnt shut the fuck up View Quote Bob's suit wasn't at optimal pressure, it was still safe in the event of depressurization though. They asked him to check his zippers to see if they were in the correct position and it sounds like both the zippers on his wrists were not fully zipped. |

They have in a simulator During the Apollo missions they would do their dance routines for months and months. I’d imagine these guys have done so many practice iterations they lost count. |

Roscosmos director gave a really good short congratulatory speech on Twitter, welcoming the US back to manned space flight, saying it is good to have alternate means for "us" to get into space, and that he is certain that the success of this mission is for the good of all mankind.
Pretty mature of him, really, hinting the Russians might want to bitch a ride with us in the future and making it clear their rockets are still available for our use. Let's see if this tweet link feature works...
Edit. Nope, of course not. |

“Please collect your belongings before exiting the spacecraft. We hope you’ve enjoyed your flight, and hope that you consider SpaceX for your future travel needs”

Roscosmos lauds manned SpaceX launch, says it won’t sit idly & promises ‘interesting’ response
Musk himself couldn’t resist gently needling the Roscosmos chief Dmitry Rogozin shortly after Falcon 9 lifted off. “The trampoline is working,” he quipped in a tongue-in-cheek reference to Rogozin, who joked back in 2014 that the US should be ready to send astronauts into orbit using gymnastics equipment if it ever sanctioned Russia’s space industry.

Quoted: My gut tells me Krikalev and Rogozin don't get along at all. View Quote Sergei Kirkalev is a member of the Astronaut Brotherhood, with 6-missions, and 803-days in space. He has time on the Mir (TM-7, TM-12, and TM-13), Space Shuttle Discovery (STS-60), Space Shuttle Endeavour (STS-88), and the International Space Station (Expedition 1, where he quite literally turned the lights on for the first time & Expedition 11). "An Astronaut's Astronaut" if you will. Dmitry Rogozin is a politician, and is well known as being 'generally disagreeable'. |
