And I've never seen a rocket launch in person.
It was cool enough from YouTube for me.
But people that were there just can't even describe how cool it was.
And I thought this was fascinating.
NFL player Josh Jobs used to be the quarterback of Tennessee.
He's actually an aerospace engineer.
He has interned with NASA through the NFL.
So he was on hand for the rocket launch.
It's not the first time he's been there in Florida to watch a rocket take off.
But it was really cool to see him in the crowd.
And then another thing, just right up the road from Cape Canaveral, there was a softball game going on between the Florida Gators and the Stetson Hatters.
This was in the Jacksonville area.
And they actually got to pause the game because they could see the rocket clearly taken off through the sky.
And the umpires called timeout.
The players got to grab their phones, come out of the dugout, and just capture that piece of history.
Yeah, well, you have to keep in mind the same parts that are getting hit by all this rain and flooding is the same parts of the island that were hit by those horrible, deadly wildfires a couple of years ago.
So right now in Hawaii, they're experiencing this thick, reddish, volcanic mud that has been rushed through the islands because of all this rain they're getting in parts of Oahu.
So the flooding has damaged homes, literally picked them up off their foundation, taken them down the street, schools, and even a hospital in Maui.
And the homes quickly washed away over the weekend because they had back-to-back heavy downpours.
And that's what led to rain just toppling over already saturated grounds everywhere.
