The space suit looks like it's made for a Halloween party. It looks kind of not flexible and fragile. The touch screen panel is surely very cool.
Right? Reading some of the comments here I thought I was going crazy - the suits look like they were made for a 2003 made-for-tv movie. Boeing suits look WAY better imo
How long will the approach to the ISS take? Previous unmanned Dragon missions take ~1 day to approach and dock but I can't imagine they will subject the astronauts to the same.

He has lots of great videos including some very well produced content on rocket engine design, starship etc.
The short answer to your question is just over 19 hours until docking, and then I think another 2 hours after that until the hatch opens.
The cold war is back, the fashion is back and out of all the things that are back I am glad that the USA is back in space flights. Wish you the best luck and hope that this will lead to some serious competition. Soyuz is great but we need to do more as species.
> do more as species Space exploration and exploitation is awesome, but shouldn't the first items on the "do more as species" todo list be about taking care of earth?

Similar - about 18-19hrs before docking. You should be able to watch it live tomorrow morning. It's funny that it takes that long, since they could theoretically make it up there in like half an hour or so. Here's a good overview of what's gonna happen today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lr_zfpzGxQQ
On a separate note, it's amazing how Tim has built such a brand in such a short time, I remember when he started out a couple of years ago.

These things don't have to be mutually exclusive. Unless you create an AI to build paperclips, of course.
