Did anyone else watch the live stream? It was awesome!

No but I'm glad nasa managed to get it on the ground.

Nope I was too busy with my own space programme at the time on Kerbal Space programme........although all I managed to do was create a rocket that could hit a target on the other side of the planet

@aether You should enter the Nordic Space Program. At least, you can land yourself on the face of the moon :3

Yep stayed up to watch it. It still amazes me that we can do these things successfully, with all of the things that could go wrong with it. Plus the fact they landed it pretty much right where they wanted to.

I can barely get orbit and most the time (about 99%) it all ends with a big explosion mid air or even on the launch pad

I wish I could have.
I'm glad that they landed it successfully though.
