On Wed., Sept. 2., at 2:45 p.m. EDT , we will test the solid rocket boosters for our Space Launch System, the most powerful rocket ever built. This full-scale booster test will take place at the Northrop Grumman facilities in Promontory, Utah, and help engineers evaluate improvements and new materials in the boosters for deep space missions beyond #Artemis III.

I think it could have been made better by putting stuff in the flames,
It would be great seeing loads of cars and trucks being burnt and flying away

I’d avoid until then to miss all the utterly inane commentary.

Actually fired at 20.05 BST. I can’t maths properly me.

The rocket should be pointing up, or you will not go to space today.

I'd always wondered why Americans were inclined to say something was figuratively a 'train wreck' whereas the English would be far more likely to say 'car crash'.

Probably more visual than standing on a pole, but what's the game this time? Try not to get sucked through a jet engine?

Blaine is having a laugh, and getting paid to do it. Must be fun in his head.
If you prefer, imagine it was Peter Duncan dangling off some helium balloons on Blue Peter. That'd be ok, right? But Blaine's inherent twattiness shines through.

Throw in presenters on minimal wages and if it works then resell as 'classic moments', if it doesn't repackage as 'classic failures' either way it'll get commissioned.

just started watching the simpsons again, after not having watched any since the 90s. I was looking for something in lockdown I could watch with the kids that didn't turn my brain to mush. Seems to be trying harder to address current issues than I remember it, for better or worse

It was the angle and field of view that I was thinking was more a matter of luck/patience.

although when I finally got round to watching it it's the middle of the night.
I've seen a bear so well fed that it strips the skin off a salmon, eats that and chucks all the rest away. I've made a point of enjoying salmon skin ever since.

It's quite an old story, originally published in 2013; and it's in French. But even if your language skills are rusty, the final sentence in this grab ought to give you the general idea...
