"Station, Houston: You have a 'go' for capture." I'll never forget these words.

  That was great. Arm moving now! Edit: CAPTURE CONFIRMED!

    Did you hear the part when he said "Looks like we have a dragon by the tail?" I cracked up.

      Yes! Goosebumps.. But, I must unfortunately confess.. seeing all that unbranded space on the Dragon had me cynically thinking, how much could they sell that ad space for?

        You know... Someday someone will put a Pan-Am logo there...

          How hard would it be to procure the rights?
          • rbanffy 14y ago
            Many things would have to happen to make it possible: - SpaceX would have to want to sell the ad space. - If NASA is paying for the mission, they may want to have a word (most likely "no"). - The owners of the Pan-Am brand would probably appreciate the gift, but I'd like to make sure they won't get mad before any such stunt. - The Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick estates would also have something to say, after all, this is more or less a reference to 2001.

            I'm kind of surprised that SpaceX didn't consider that for the outside of the dragon capsule. Note that the capsule has a camera inside of it (there are pictures from it on SpaceX's site) so when the hatch opens you can see pictures directly from a video camera that isn't under NASA's control.
