Food for thought.

Has Russia ever sent 4 people in to space at the same time ?

The USA will be fully back as the leader for doing that since 2011 , and that starts in 30 minutes.
I am quite excited about that.

Fuck you Russia for fleecing the USA on your drug money charges for getting people up to the ISS for the past 10 years !

They may have have had 4 or more up on Mir or the ISS at once, but I don think they have sent up 4 at the same time.

spaces launches haven't been on multiple channels in years...
The demo 2 launch did get pretty good tv coverage and also the 1st falcon heavy launch did.

I'd think the moon launch and mars launch will get tv coverage also

Musk will use the Starlink skrilla to do it on his own dime.

Starlink could give SpaceX a larger 'budget' than NASA

Ever since the challenger blew up on live TV the coverage has been dialed back. Funding dries up when little billy watches people die.

It's cooler so it's (slightly) denser.

Most of the density improvements come from the densification of the LOX though, which is ~70% of the fuel by mass.
