The private boats circling the capsule recovery shouldn’t be there, but the Trump flag was a nice touch.

Me too. I clearly recall the pride in seeing the striped parachutes. Same pride today

I think that was on a private boat. Not a good idea by whomever got that close. I don’t care who they were or what the we’re flying.

Why wasn’t that area secured?

Boaters for Trump is a BIG thing.

Whoever it is, can probably afford the fines

It truly astounds me that there are civilians in boats in the area. I realize that for Apollo, it was done in the Pacific and done by the US Navy.

The blond commenter said “It might be a good idea not to announce where our splashdown area is”. Well, DUH!

It makes no sense to me that those non-team people are out there.

Trump 2020, Baby!

Where there is a boat, there is a Trump flag.

I don’t usually use coarse language but don’t disagree with the sentiment.

Did they lose the key to open the capsule door?
