One advantage of living in Florida! First time we saw it was when we were in Spanish Springs in the sq. watching a band play & people dancing. Only in America!

Which app, there are quite a few listed?

The app is space launch now.. you can also go to Space.com for listed launches and SpaceX.com.
As for viewing the launchs just look to the east trying to have a clear view. Afternoon launches are iffy to view but night launches are awesome. Yesterdays launch was one of the best we have seen.

Yeah, was driving the golf cart and the view was spectacular. I liked how fast it was going. Wish plane fights to Europe or Asia could be that fast. Loved the shiny rod shape I guess the sun and propulsion together.
Looks like the next one is 4 days around 1pm

I don’t know about other areas but I am in the Spanish Springs area. Can see many of the rocket launches from our driveway.
