Fortunate enough to have had this launch fly right over us last night. Was flying Toronto to Jamaica, and 150 NM off the coast of Florida. Absolutely amazing sight as it flew directly overhead. Once in a lifetime experience.

I watch the Vandenberg launches from Orange County through 30X binox. Hope to video them through my telescope eventually, but not that adept at the video part yet.

@ 1:02:57-01:02:58 a UFO fly's by from right to left. I saw the same thing happen after the lift off of the rocket from Texas yesterday.

I've often wondered...which is louder, the Falcon9 being launched or the sound of my ex-wife eating?

[Slebo_SeventySomething]

Not really that amazing. Supposedly done this for 60+ years and back then they could land back on earth and even go to the moon.

Their is no way space X will make it out the firmament !! …. How many times he will keep attempting this! And failing because of God’s design, the glass ceiling is not meant to be broken!!
