Seems former Sen Bill Nelson, now NASA Administrator, said yesterday Artemis I, the first unmanned Artemis mission, will launch later this year.

I’m never ready for Pens hockey to end, and I miss the team already. Should be game 7 tonight, at least.

Counting down to October.

Unvarnished truth: 2016/2017 teams could hold a lead. 2018, 2021 could not.

And those of us outside the area with Centre Ice, makes no difference, stuck with the national feed on NBCSN

New gateway renderings released today:

Because the SO part worked out so well last time... (Not)

Just show them Volek on loop as if it was a "your brain on Drugs" PSA.

Jarry SO.

This is coming from a guy that has seen approximately a billion hours of hockey in his life. The taking of all 10 skaters to the box after a fairly mild scrum has to be in the top 5 dumbest things I’ve ever seen. It really sets a new precedent. Your goon takes a cheap shot at the goalie, then in th...

Let's not get our hopes up.

Remember when the Pens took three (?) consecutive delay-of-game penalties against the Caps? Boy, that was fun.

I thought I was going to have multiple heart attacks.

Was that the 2016 series? Letang had one of them so it couldn't have been 2017.

Read that SpaceX got the contract to lift off the PPE and HALO elements of Gateway . The announcement was in February, probably buried in the Mars excitement. With a launch date no earlier than May 2024. https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-awards-contract-to-launch-initial-elements-for-lunar-out...

I think I just assumed WBS didn't qualify for the AHL playoffs. Didn't realize the AHL wasn't having playoffs this year.

It was almost like they were lemmings. One after the other after the other!

Did I just see what I wanted to see, or was there a blatant trip against the Isle either late in the third, or in OT? Right before the GWG, there was what appeared to be interference committed by the goal-scorer that allowed him to get free. Foul leading directly to a scoring change usually gets ca...

Yellow once, fine.

But ALL of them?

The worm is back!

Would like it better if all the games were at 7pm

Yep. I could live with the moronic "playoffs" if they got rid of stage racing.

It was exciting watching Larson creep up on Truex only for MTJ just to find another gear and run away.

The year they let Kyle Busch win it despite missing half the season was the "jumping the shark" moment for me.

I've spent the last three days reading this thread. Memory lane. and a lot of strips I had missed first pass. Thanks @Kane !

All of our Cups have been won while we wore black jerseys in the series. That is all they need to know to do the right thing.

All on the road but not all in black. Only 91-92 were in black. 09-16-17 were in white.

This last race was about as close to late 90s/early 00s NASCAR you could hope to get. Green for the last 100 laps, dominant car from Truex, no garbage cautions late etc.

Now just get rid of stage racing. It's worse than the old truck series "halftime".
