It's going to be weird hearing them radio "Hawthorne" instead of "Houston".
 
I'm more interested in seeing those "badass" space suits SpaceX contracted for a bit back.
 
Excuse the explicit language, but damn that looks cool.

I still prefer the white clean room suits they usually wear like the ones in Interstellar but...it still peaks on my cool meter.
 
Some new shots of the interior.
