There was a lot of struggle coupled with incredible growth with this mission, and it’s exactly what we needed to get ready for our next launch out of the UK! 5 flights later and it’s still not old.
Adios Rocket 6 ❤️ 🚀
Watched the news and they ended their segment on VO with "wow, what a disaster" LOL you can say that again. Or like 750+ times.

I have PCOS. I develop cysts on my ovaries that can burst and cause extreme pain and make me bleed so much that I become anemic.

This will effect more than just abortions.
