The Queens Gambit. Not my usual watch, but it's something I can watch with the wife. It's not bad actually.

Not a clue, it could be about half an hour or it could be 5 hours, the last 2 have been towards the end of the launch window.

If they could just shave another tenth or so off that time they'd be good-to-go..

All 3 Raptors lit, then.. The confuser saw something it didn't like.

They have until midnight GMT so might try again, they are looking to see why the computer said NO!

If you like explosions, check out some of the first returning booster rocket landings. Took them ages to get it right with arguably a much simpler vehicle. Imagine trying to land a starship with 4 hydraulic flaps and 3 rockets on a gimbals. It's a staggering engineering achievement.
