I'm still trying to figure out whether or not I will be able to see the flyover from Virginia. I got to see the rocket flyover a few weeks ago that failed to make it to the ISS. Can someone help me out? What's the flight path?

The OP either shut it down for the night or is in the bathroom covered in shoe polish from belt to knees trying to get the lighting right -Sierra5

Just watched it from my front yard. Love night launches.
|

Stage one landed on OCISLY.

Stage landing, now in parking orbit. 44min to circularization burn.

Clear as bell out tonight. Saw the launch from Naples.
|

Fear is a reaction, courage is a decision.
I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader shoulders, not for an easier path, but for stronger feet, not for weaker enemies, but for a stronger self! |
Held my breathe on landing.

|
Anyone know if the satellite train will be visible from CONUS during sunrise tomorrow?
|
|

Pretty launch tonight. I swear there was a red,white, blue coloration of the exhaust.
Got a good look at first stage separation (using 10x binoculars) from our Orlando area home. |

Good launch.
Just waiting for deployment. |

This is the reason smart TVs were invented.

The payload fairing was not caught by the ship.

I always laugh at these perigee raise burns. MVac is so overpowered that most farts last longer than them...

Awesome, tuned in for the whole thing. My feed on the Everyday Astronaut froze so I had to panic switch it in the last minute
Can't wait for the in flight abort test |
