They are highly-suspicious of all newcomers and hostile to almost everyone, including themselves. The only thing they don't take seriously is Discordianism.

Okay... this is cool.  NASA released video of the launch, from the shuttle.

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

As cool as this is, and as flawless they have gotten these launches down to, as Sigmatic/Jasper said, I can't help but think of this comment by ND Tyson:

It is hugely disappointing, but I don't think it's reasonable to say that just because the US isn't going to go back, that humans never will.  NASA isn't the be-all end-all of space.
