Mariners did the same.

Deslanek · Apr 12

Was this mission reputable? Is the end goal not just to put trumps name on some space trash on the moon?

Roccaworld · Apr 11

I love my Mets

XraynaVotesBlue 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇨🇦🇲🇽 · Apr 11

That is awesome! I would have stayed home till after the splashdown, just to see it!

Uncle David, Fella of Oz (🇺🇸) · Apr 11

Experiencing beautiful things together triples the delight for all involved.

Jeff Marshall · Apr 11

If the Phillies were in the capsule it would have never hit water.

Well done, @mets.com

Terry Scott · Apr 11

I thought it was going to turn into the Dot Race at the last second. Still cool I guess.

@hornlm.bsky.social · Apr 11

And to think the Yankees had some big shoutout to Charlie Kirk on their Jumbotron. Made me a Yankees hater.

@felbrigge.bsky.social · Apr 11

Meanwhile, at Yankee Stadium

We have money for war but not the poor. Reread that

@hondalawyer.bsky.social · Apr 11

Awesome!

Lisa Schiff · Apr 11

Once I heard Nate Colbert speak at a luncheon. He said he got up to bat one afternoon and the stadium erupted - he felt so humbled that he was getting so much applause and waved to the crowd - then he said that he looked at the scoreboard which said that man had landed on the moon... cracked me up

Ed Spada · Apr 11

Great stuff. Lets go Mets!

Jodi Breckenridge Petit · Apr 11

A spring ball game AND a splashdown?!

Squidman · Apr 11

Gotta keep the fans in the ballpark any way we can.

Not a waste of money at all Priorities

@andy02453.bsky.social · Apr 11

I'm glad for the astronauts' safe return. Also, considering that they included a woman, a Black, and a Canadian... that demented trump must be banging his head against the wall like the enraged baboon he is.

@lhuggs.bsky.social · Apr 11

Were they just warming up?

Syrinx · Apr 11

We love da Mets hit a home run baby let's go mets

@youvotedforthis2.bsky.social · Apr 11

Did you see the video of the college softball game between the Florida Gators and Stetson? They stopped the game and everyone watch the launch. It was awesome!

friendishly · Apr 11

At the last game of the year last year, at their Triple A Syracuse Mets game, MY time there was ruined when I noticed the flag in center field, at half mast in respect for Ole Dead Charlie Kirk. FUCK the Mets.

Beefy Baccalieri, Jr. · Apr 11

Honestly don’t know if I’d survive the whiplash of pausing a major sporting event for breaking news rn

Chevre Guevara · Apr 11

Followed by a Charlie Kirk Memorial, I assume.

WarriorAngel · Apr 11

👍

Stephen S Power · Apr 11

FAKE! There's no "CitiField."

@galfrompa.bsky.social · Apr 11

Awesomeness

@madisonfly.bsky.social · Apr 11

Aw nice!

Nic · Apr 11

At Camden Yards too! Here there was a replay shown between innings. And a PA shout-out Baltimore native Reid Wiseman.

OldLadyInAZ 🌵 · Apr 11

Cool.

Rich Harfst · Apr 11

Well, f--k me, you're going to make me something nice about the Mets.

Marjorie @ DashKitten 🇬🇧 · Apr 11

Ooh well done @Mets.com - from New Zealand

KUNA · Apr 14

yeah, but have you seen their attendance numbers lately?

Ann KP · Apr 11

Mets fans needed something to cheer for haha

@epollaert.bsky.social · Apr 11

This is the country I was raised in. I miss it so much.

Dr. LurkHer 🇨🇦 · Apr 11

Very cool of them!

cortlandjim · Apr 11

They have to show something entertaining, the team sucks.

@johnnyho34.bsky.social · Apr 11

Yeah cool! But, fuck the Mets.

Dano53 · Apr 11

Very cool!

"DO YALL LIKE AMERICA?" [incoherent screeching] "DO YALL LIKE SPACESHIPS?" [more incoherent screeching]

Michael Buckelew · Apr 11

I sure do regret thinking the privatization of launches was a grand idea. Sure, they got cheaper. But now we get a fully NASA mission about once every five years instead of all the shit they did during the shuttle era.

@emmawoo39.bsky.social · Apr 11

How to be at 2 great events! Thoughtful!!!

Patrick · Apr 11

I will give the Mets credits for that. That is really fucking cool of them to do that

Cupcakish 🧁 · Apr 12

I love that they did that! #LetsGoMets

Winggirle · Apr 11

It's a HISTORIC moment for the World. I'm thankful #Mets showed the "splashdown" as successful as the mission was but they made it back, safely. Thank you, Jesus! 🙏🏿

Gwen · Apr 11

#Mets Couldn't see the game b/c the Mets business has signed on with streaming services. I was asked to pay more $$ to get the Mets Friday game. I can afford it, but damn if I will cave to the blood & money suckers of streaming services. I want a team that won't rob me b/c i'm a fan.

@kmckeough.bsky.social · Apr 11

Awesome

L4UREN · Apr 11

Amazing.

Churlayla 86.47 · Apr 12

I read T Mobile park played "Fly me to the Moon" while it came down.

Political Warrior · Apr 11

Awesome!

@DouglasGreen43 · Apr 11

I watched the splashdown before turning the Met Game on. I didn't know I could have watch both at the same time.

Ohgreatouija · Apr 11

Too bad they lost the game. And after trading the favorite players away........

@redmcredred.bsky.social · Apr 11

NY Mets play the Artemis splashdown NY Yankees play a tribute to Charlie Kirk .. (true story)

Janet Carter · Apr 11

Well done!

[The Great War & Modern Memory] · Apr 11

This is HOW it's done. Thank you @mets.com

Excellent 👏👏

BoomBoomMancini · Apr 11

#Artemis. Billions of wasted taxpayer funds. All for cool. seen before pictures. If AI is so fucking ground breaking couldn't anything this total waste of money be better spent on something better, like say a public hanging? #NASA is nothing but a blank check for #SpaceX.

The Real Steve Jessup · Apr 11

the players should have respected the event for a moment

Stan Zanarotti · Apr 11

Loved the "Also sprach Zarathustra" (music used in 2001) at the end!

FatGuyOnABike🔒 · Apr 11

Way to go Mets. Wait, did i just say that out loud?!
