A Big Day On Space TV
Added 2019-07-02 16:59:48 +0000 UTCEarlier in the day NASA performed a spectacular live test of the Launch Escape System for the Orion Capsule intended to fly on SLS - I missed it live due to being on a train, but it looked like a success. Yes, it was intentional that they were going to drop the capsule into the ocean without parachutes.

A bit further south than Florida there's going to be a solar eclipse that will get live coverage on NASA TV so if you want to follow along it's worth tuning in.

As of right now my European voyages have brought be to Amsterdam for a short stay, even after Europe's train system tried to confuse us every time we used them.
