I saw another night launch that filled the sky with red and orange. This one didn't but I found it thrilling anyway. I'm glad some of you watched it.

BTW, did you see it twice? It went behind cloud cover but showed up again from my vantage point.

I missed it.

I am glad that they are still launching. Hope it keeps some of those people employed.

a great technical accomplishment for America. I cannot wait for SpaceX to start transporting our astronauts instead of having to hitch a ride with the Russians....paying big bucks to do so and having to be a second rate player (in the business of space) for now.

Congratulations to SpaceX.
