I haven’t watched a rocket launch since Challenger. But today, from start to finish, I had the Blue Origin launch streaming because William Shatner was going for a ride on New Shepard.
The Captain Kirk references got annoying but the sheer chutzpah of a ninety year old man going into space really caught my interest.
He went up safely and got back safely.
Wicked cool.
I'd like to see the insurance rider for a 90 year old guy getting launched on a rocket.

Matthew–Not sure any insurance company would take that one… Their actuary tables don't go that high.NFO-Yep–and he was able to enjoy the trip. It's my understanding that James Doohan's ashes went into space and were released.
