What a great team Das and Morgan make! This was just fun. Great job, everybody..thx

Awesome coverage NSF! Great commentary DAS, & Morgan! Really enjoyed this launch, Hope to see more coverage of Firefly and other launch providers like this! Go Firefly!! Go NSF!!!

Congrats 🎉on the launch, Ty for sharing this launch and the both of you for hosting. I concur w everyone’s comments below

We always thank NSF but thank you to all the companies that allow us all to see and be educated by the advancements of humanity x Great streams can’t wait for the next.

Missed the livestream but awesome to see firefly nail this launch. So happy for them

Really like Morgan. The hostess with the "mostess"

I wonder if I should tell this story - but oh well.... My father was George Arthur Jacobs, an aerospace engineer originally from Pennsylvania. He had a last contract in Sunnyvale that was something to do with the space shuttle engines. On the scheduled day of the first launch (which WAS successful) he sat in front of the TV set (what we had in those days) through every single hold and wait. I remember he sat there overnight, unmoving, following the entire process. I had to go to the kitchen and bring food to the man... Until it finally went into orbit, and then he shot up out of his chair, CLAPPED his hands together and said: "THAT'S IT! WE DID IT!!!" ~ and then he took me out to celebrate 😎 It was one of the most unforgettable moments in time that I remember about MY PAPA

thank you morgan and das nice commentary

never get tired of a great launch, and this one is great so many happening now what a great time to live. GO FIREFLY GO !

I really like the hosts. Very good job.

I seen it in Visalia ca when we were at a drone show yesterday night

I was talking to a woman about her dog that had a recent health issue and she wanted to show me some pics on her phone. Turns out they were pics of this launch she had trekked out to California to see.......because her son works at Firefly! Way cool to see her pics and to feel her pride in her son's contributions to this company.

The ice shaking off like little Space-Fireflies, damn gorgeous vision. Great to see they're getting success, more launchers in the marketplace leads to lower prices to launch customers, and the competition leads to innovation. Microphone on Structure, don't expect to hear the exhaust gases burning, but instead, fuel pumps, valves, maybe tank slosh, pressurisation events, things inside the structure, all very cool stuff to listen too.

Well done folks ! Great coverage.

Morgan and DAS made this broadcast! Those two need to be the commentary team on all future Firefly broadcasts!

When I was doing bridge construction we were patching damaged concrete and that is how we found the weak points by tapping on it with a hammer and listening to the sound.

Telemetry and video feed were a tad glitchy, but not bad. For their 5th overall launch, pretty amazing actually. They went up to over 500km altitude, impressive! Great coverage Das, @NSF, you guys rock! Congratulations to the folks from Firefly - "Noise of Summer" appears to have had great success!

Well done NSF and Firefly. Great broadcast!

One of the best live streams for a launch. Awesome work.

Lovely chilled presentation

So amazing! Saw this launch all the way from San Jose. It was epic.

I was out at Santa Rosa island off the coast when this came up over me. It was a complete surprise! Early fourth of july!

that was great! thank you

Also Morgan = Great interview/Host 👍

From New Zealand - congrats to Firefly! Great launch! It'd be great to see reusable stages being used in the future as I'm aware that the present system uses expendable rockets. Hopefully, reusable ones will come soon and that could help to bring down launch costs too! Keep up the great work!

I hate to give the NSF team more work to do, but I really liked the different opening montage for the Firefly Alpha launch. I realize it was part of a joint coverage between Firefly Aerospace and NSF. But I think it would be really cool if there was a different opening montage (but same music) for the different types of rocket launches; Vulcan, Atlas, Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, Starship, Firefly, Electron, etc. And then keep using the existing intro for everything else including Starship updates, etc. I.e. the custom montages would just be for actual launch livestreams. Although I’m guessing Jack would be the one who would have to do it all, if so sorry Jack! But I think it would be really cool.

I was able to see this launch in Montrose Colorado. Got some decent photos for being taken with a phone!

Beautiful.

This rocket sounds like a vintage jet airliner at full power, such as a dc9 or 727.

Really gives me hope for the kids.🦖❤

thank you for the show :-)

Beautiful jelly fish seen in Cerritos, California. Booster continued to jelly for a while after the 2nd stage was out of sight. Sadly, my had no room for pictures, and no time to clear out old pics.

Dang! Thats what it was. I was driving down I-40 in new Mexico😃 last night and saw what looked to be a comet in the sky... It was this rocket

Nice guitar

I thought I would comment to help the algorithm.

What a beaut.

Cool

I got This reccemented from the discord

1:48:55 You’ve gotta make this part a separate video! I think I’d be cool to have separate montages playing to the music.

That was sooo beautiful!! Thx this was sooo amazing

LAMB SAUCE PLEASE

If you are half a century old with the mind of a teenager, you can really appreciate the progress in all of these launches. I missed Apollo with my birth by 2 years. My generation has sat for 50 years with NOTHING! No flying cars and a rise in right wing self centred thinking. We are in a resource scarce bubble of a world, full of narcissists who have no idea how we got here. This is HOPE! For our race. Without that you get d T and a very de-ad planet! Good job firefly. You should have never been cancelled in the first place 😂 hope this got past the fasc m o d s.

Hello 👋

I admire your enthusiasm and enjoyment of being here. But do yourself and your listeners a favor. Take a breath. Slow down just a little, and take some time to enunciate and form your words. You will stumble and stutter less, and add to the enjoyment of your listeners. Over 40 years announcing experience here. Listen to yourself, and to some of the old timers. Cronkite, Bergman, Roy Neal all covered space shots, and were as enthused as you, but showed their excitement without stumbling.

Sorry I’ve been sooo happy redundant etc smiles eat to go woot woot
