This is the first try at recording the podcast "ON-THE-ROAD" - using a new recording device, so I'll be working out the kinks WARNING: There is some popping and wind distortion - be careful with your speakers or headphones. I did as much as I know post-production to minimize it. In this episode, Alex is ON-THE-ROAD for the first part of the episode, covering the launch (aborted) of CRS-6 on April 13th, 2015. Then, he covers the successful launch and docking of the Dragon capsule to the ISS with a lightning round made by ELGR3CO He then rambles about the landing attempt of the 1st Stage Falcon 9 rocket on the Drone Ship called "Just Read the Instructions" Enjoy!
