@arrl Next to my other radios, Baofeng is less clear and picks up about half the conversation, completely broken up. Wouxon is my go to handheld. Even better than our fire department radios. Dispatch always hears me on the Wouxon.

@Pyth2727 What is the camera you are using? Such high frame rate with such clear low light image. Wow!

@AJamesMcCarthy The raw power on display in such detail. I had to vote rockets!

So much power in these engines.

This was captured right near the pad using a 150mm lens to get the details. When I placed my camera, I expected it to be destroyed and assumed my odds of getting a shot were low.

Not only did the camera survive, the shot exceeded expectation

Good night, Albuquerque, New Mexico! (lightning behind the Sandias)

I have recently acquired a new astro camera, the uncooled Svbony SV705C one shot color camera that uses the Sony IMX585 sensor.
These are three results from last night. The camera was attached to a Rokinon 135mm lens and mounted on my Skywatcher Eq6-Ri pro.

@AmazAstro @MAstronomers And the sun will likely be rising when it gets to that point.
