Default rocket 9 pm tonight
Launch at a little after 9 PM in about 15 minutes from the cape. It is going to be easily seen to the ESE with our clear skies.

I just heard about it myself. Sitting in the garage listening to the margaritaville channel on Sirius radio and they announced it.

Holding at 4 minutes for problems with data dropout. There is a 40 minute window tonight.

Very cool. This is the third liftoff we got to see from our Lanai. Love it. The best show yet

It was a super launch and the absolutely clear sky made it well worth going outside to view! So glad I remembered to go out and see it! My favorite sight is always the super fiery red glow above the horizon as the rocket comes into view! Wowsa!

Wow! Color me jealous. Never thought about being able to see something like this from my home. I guess I just have to get down there soon.
