- Looked and didn't find any full length Airwolf episodes on youtube, but in retrospect given how much I loved that theme tune, it's pretty obvious that I was always going to be very into electronic music, I just had to get through heavy metal, hard rock and grunge, then bust out of the "only music created by actual musical instruments in bands is real music" mindset, I still like all the music from my early years, but I also like so many other musical genres now too, but it took a lot of years

- SpaceX Crew Dragon Splashes Down after Historic Test Flight - Glad to hear that the mission was accomplished successfully, I'm struck by the accuracy that is required for these missions, for example once demo1 completes it's missions, they have validated the design and 1 instance of building the spaceship, but don't they then have to run the same tests on demo2 the astronaut carrying vehicle? How can they be sure that the build is an exact replica? There are so many moving parts
