We watched the SCI channel all evening, with the programs about the previous missions; Rosetta, etc, waiting for the program. Did you hear the self-serving tweet by Obama? He congratulated the New Horizons team, and the national ‘leadership’, meaning himself, of course, even though he hadn’t even begun his run for the Presidency when the mission was actually launched.
I was going to watch the NASA channel but for some reason, it didn’t have audio. Don’t know if it’s our tv or Comcast. So I just waited until it was time for New Horizons’ signal to come in and pulled up NASA TV on the computer and watched it there. Same with the presser a half hour later.
No, I hadn’t heard about Obamarx’s Tweet. No surprise he’s trying to take some credit where none is due. *spit*
