I find myself more excited because of the complexity of this task. 7 minutes of terror? Rockets fighting Gs while crane is lowering the vehicle down? All done by computer with none help from humans (as you know in flying computers are awesome at straight flying (autopilot) but horrible on landing, something here seems to be all about).
Looking forward seeing this mission succeed. And wouldn't be surprise to see some of those grownup man at the cockpit letting some loose. I know if I was in charge of this mission, I would pee all over myself, if succeed!
