Or if the screen locked and could only be unlocked by fingerprints like a cell phone lol

Why the gently caress does it need a touch screen. Give them a loving flight-stick jesus h christ.

Can’t wait for the gforces to gently caress up the touchscreen calibration and it registers a touch wrong that spikes the rocket into the ground. Everything about this has been designed for appearance and not function. It’s the most American, capitalist thing that could have come out of this hell time line for space

Lol, cockpit shot shows both of them pumping their arms up and down faster and faster, matching their timing to an onscreen Wii Fit Trainer to make rocket go up.

It kinda sucks that the astronauts have to sit there for so long before launch. I'd have to pee.
