Not much coverage in the MSM....
RE: Not much coverage in the MSM....
If it bleeds, it leads.
Anyway, for those who want to cast their eyes away from the riots, here are things of interest (i.e., what’s next after the docking ):

Astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley have successfully docked the capsule with the International Space Station just under 19 hours after launch from Cape Canaveral. The largely automated process was uneventful. The crew tested manual operation at one point, which they said behaved much like the simulator.
Dont expect a hasty return after this. Behnken and Hurley are expected to spend weeks aboard the ISS before returning to Earth. The capsules solar arrays are only rated for 119 days in space, so it will have to return by the fall no matter how eager the astronauts might be to stay. However long they stay, its a historic moment this is the first time a crewed private spacecraft has docked in orbit. If all goes well, this is an important step toward making space more accessible.
“...Not much coverage in the MSM....”
Of course not...it does not generate DEMOCRAT VOTES...beyond RAT comprehension if there is such a thing.
Why should they? Neither they nor DJT’s speech featured mayhem and blood. Therefore no coverage of either.
