    That booster separation was unexpectedly beautiful, never knew it would be so vibrant. We're in town and this was my first launch viewing, couldn't hand the binoculars to my wife soon enough for that plume. Thank you!

    Thank you for sharing. Have a great 2024. 🙂🙂 I worked the ground launch computers for Saturn V 501, Apollo 4, the first launch from Pad 39A. It is amazing the progress that has been achieved between these two launches.🙂🙂

    I watched from my backyard in Lakeland, it was beautiful! I saw a few space shots from Merritt Island when I was young , never got to see a shuttle, every time I went it was scrubbed. It was always a family thing watching from my parents house in Bartow. I am so amazed at the progress. Thank you sfn for your coverage, Will is the best🚀

    Why would they be doing this at night? During the day they could get a lot better footage, especially the rocket lifting off could transmit some amazing images of earth back, but .... they never do.

      Recovery of the Falcon Heavy core stage has been challenging so they have decided to maximise performance.
