Captainlove Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Well i have just watched the first virgin orbit launch from newquay cornwall. And it was shit to be honest. The live stream was piss poor and the cameras they used must have been from 1980's. Unless there is some better footage somewhere i call bollocks to it. It looked like they filmed someones gas hob it was that bad, and to think the Apollo mission was filmed much better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
