    I watched it live, they did respond to his direct questions, but at some point Trump went into a monologue that didn’t end in a question, and they didn’t say anything back, keeping a silence going for an awkward amount of time until Houston asked if they are still on the line and they confirmed that yeah they heard everything. And said nothing else.

      Nah other way around. The astronauts asked a NASA administrator if they are still on the line or if there was a handover. Then Tump replied “I am, yes, I am”.
