imo, this is a key event for NASA.

Ummmmm not a hard call to make considering it's the second SLS launch (after much delay) and the first manned mission to leave LEO and go to the moon in what, 54 years?

Add to it they're live streaming the entire thing, so a less than successful launch is, at best, egg all over their face with a launch day scrub or, at worst, a catastrophic failure Challenger-level tragedy on even greater display.

All this with s*&^head, anti-science Republicans who would love nothing better than to cut NASA funding watching who would jump at the opportunity and have their fat, worthless faces before the cameras before the debris even hit the water.

ery poor journalism.

That's science "journalism" in general. It's been that way for about 20 years.
