The hydraulic pin holding the tower arm in place did not retract.
If that can be fixed tonight, there will be another launch attempt tomorrow at 5:30 CT.
Even at 93 (almost 94), and still happy to hit the dance floor.
So privileged to be able to spent time with one of the most amazing women I know.
I love you Oma.

Today is my 5 year death-iversary. I think about my accident often. Honestly I think about it anytime I’m about to pull a trigger. Today is different though. Today is a day of reflection and perspective. If I could change the events of April 9th 2021, I wouldn’t. I am a better man, better husband, better father and better christian because of April 9th. Life is much sweeter once you have almost lost it and the stresses of this world don’t seem to matter as much. It straightens out your priorities. God and Family are all that really matter and I’m thankful I’ve had another 5 years on this earth to serve both. I also want to say thank you to all of my fans for your support over the years. I’m grateful to still be able to make awesome content for my followers and I’m excited to see what happens next in life! Happy 5 year Death-iversary everyone! Just put a thumb in it!
🚨 NOW: As Artemis II reaches its final hours in space, @NASAAdmin Jared Isaacman PERSONALLY bought HUNDREDS of pizzas for the Mission Control team
Isaacman REFUSES to use tax dollars to support his role as administrator—even declining to use government jets for official travel
He pays his own way, and donates his salary to Space Camp for kids.
There’s NEVER been an administrator who cares more about the mission than Administrator @rookisaacman.

This large female lobster, believed to be between 40 and 60 years old and carrying a remarkable 70,000–80,000 eggs, is considered a true “grandmother” of the ocean.
To support the species’ survival, Jacob chose to release her back into the sea right away.
