Nah, it's your 100th landing on the same planet, and after 100,000 other players have already landed on that planet. Although some might call that the Buzz Aldrin moment.

So they basically took off, then landed on the same planet a few kms away (it's 1:4 scale IIRC?), exit the ship and made it into an "amazing" video?Yes...yes it does
Wow.
Yes...yes it does
I dont know that it gets old. And it has never been all that special to me. It just "is".
A Captain Kirk moment?

Yeah. I realize for the Elite case the Armstrong moment blue tube meme is well deserved, but I suspect Piers Jackson´s mention to that moment in the dev diaries has always been more of an evocative description for the first time we were going to actually be in first person outside our ships, look around, and have that new sense of relative scale. Depending on the right time, lighting, planet, environment sounds and music etc it may very well be an awesome experience. Something Elite’s Stellar Forge is extremely good at and that Star Citizen static fish bowl imo can’t really match. Either way your mileage was always going to vary.Nah, it's your 100th landing on the same planet, and after 100,000 other players have already landed on that planet.

You confuse with the "Spock moment" where you teleport onto a planet.
I think you are all confusing it with the "Turing moment", because it is really just a bunch ones and zeros that result in an animated make-believe displayed on a screen.
With SC you get the Scotty Moment: Beam me up, Scotty. This game sucks.

Beuge is "bend" in German. Can also be the bend in the limbs (and their joints involved). "Verbeugung" is when you bow.
There's one born every minute.
Can't help but notice, in the last couple of weeks the funding tracker seems to be recording less money.
Wonder how many faithful backers were from Russia.... (and remember forum rules, no politics!).

I doubt that'd be "backers".
That "SQ42 is just SC running locally" trope has always been suspicious to me, because it made no sense technically. First of all, the network infrastructure and topology of services behind SC is still in the prototyping phase and will be changing for years. Second, the more complex it is, running it all locally is more insane. Not that one cannot run a couple of server processes locally (one always can), but the unnecessary overhead would be painful for the CPU. Additionally, it would create an interesting conundrum - to maintain the same code base, would SQ42 be always updated to run the same infrastructure locally as current SC does?
SQ42 is loved. Really, deeply loved.

Commander Boost from Vladivostok has played all levels of SQ42 apparently/
Technically speaking it would be CMDR Tolkat.
Its not that new - I coined it before FDev used it for their own copy

Back on topic: how is VR getting on in Star Citizen? It was on the feature list once wasn't it?
