When is launch?
[This site](https://apolloinrealtime.org/11/) archives all of the Apollo 11 radio transmissions and syncs it to mission control and astronaut footage. It’s one of my favorite background noise sources. (Works better on desktop where you can scan through the timestamps easily.)
The worst-case-scenario conspiracy theorist in my brain sees this launch happening at the same time as the Supreme Court nonsense and the Iran war supposedly “winding down” and just starts running wild with what-ifs.
I really really really hope this launch goes smoothly and the Astronauts complete their mission safe and sound.
