That’s funny!

If that doesn’t work, bang it a few times with a boom crane.

A couple of Astro-nuts. Here’s the problem, you forgot to attach the extension cord to the launch pad…..Have a nice flight!

Buffering…

Obviously Microsoft’s first launch.

They forgot to get the launch controller to join the domain and let the network security software accept remote network administrator commands.

Where did the guy with the lighter go?

Who let Bezos in the Control Room???

Hello, Launch Control-Alt-Delete?

Oy

NOT a good place to stand Bleeb. R U U U N N N ! ! !

If NASA bought Windows instead of Unix(or whatever they got way back then)

Must be a Direct TV rocket!

Elon Musk at his best.

So this is how the cable companies service geosynchronous satellites?

“For ignition start, please press: Ctl-Shift-Escape-Return-Alt-CapsLock-Page Up-Home-Enter-BackSlash-Clear-Tab-Del-End-ForwardSlash… three times fast, while pressing and holding the Function Key with your right index finger!…

Thank you for calling the Tech Support HelpLine… please stay on the line for a short survey.”

It will be nice when we can have cartoons about rockets that are still in service.

“Hello I.T.. Have you tried turning it off and on again?”

Well, that’s what you get for using a Microsoft operating system. Things would have been smoother with Linux…

Sounds just like my iPhone when recharging…must be an electric spaceship

While millions of Americans watch…how embarrassing!

They are waiting for Captain Kirk to say: “Mr. Sulu, take us out of here”

“W” did away with the Shuttle program before we had the ability to send people into space, and then the US paid 100’s of millions of dollars to the Russians to get our people to the ISS. What a deal.

Maybe it’s the proximity detector. All those launch groupies + Bleeb are going to be incinerated if that thing takes off.

That launch is still in beta.

This happened waaaaay more often than you’d like to think.

Bleeb, honey, put the batteries back in the nice man’s remote, okay???? :)

They should also hold the power button for 2 seconds, before plugging it in again.

Moon shoot reboot.

Bleeb’s just having a little fun.
