@Ben_Stanfield@ulalaunch@Amazonleo The weather over there may be too cloudy tonight but you'll need to look East/Southeast to see it and you'll know as soon as it appears but given the distance, it may not be very bright, especially given the potential weather in Columbus. (2)
@Ben_Stanfield@ulalaunch@Amazonleo Hey Ben if you're in Columbus, you're pretty far away but not out of the line of sight. Using the FlightClub website, this shows, from the ground level, what you can expect to see as far as tracking the rocket. (1)
@ulalaunch It was a BEAUTIFUL view in southeast Georgia! It looked as if it was directly in front of me & if I can get my phone to process the video, I can't wait to share what it looked like.
The 2-3 minutes before BECO were stunning to see!
@ulalaunch That was an absolutely beautiful Launch! We had a great show from Saint Simone Island, GA & we were able to see the entire burn of Vulcan and track Centaur almost all the way over the horizon.
Stellar work as usual @ulalaunch, @torybruno and company! π€ππ€―
We had ourselves a partial Twilight Effect Launch seen from Saint Simons Island Georgia during the @SpaceX Starlink 10-26 Mission this morning and it was glorious!!!
The noctilucent cloud that hung around for over an hour was one of the most beautiful things you'll ever see.
We could see the Twilight Effect as the 2nd Stage of the @SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket headed over the horizon this morning for the Starlink 10-28 Mission. This is so rare and such a treat to see. Pictures and videos never do justice.

WOW!!! What an honor to witness the 500th Launch of a Falcon 9 rocket as well as the 29th flight of a single Booster. SpaceX just made History again tonight and it was spectacular!!!

@torybruno @ProjectKuiper Holy crap wow!!! That's the most impressive set of bullseye data since the last Atlas V Launch. Incredible precision! Kudos and hero cookies all around!!! π€―ππ€
I stay in the background with these things as a mod for SpaceXNow but had to share this.
PROPS & Hero Cookies to @esherifftv & @JoeTegtmeyer for clarifying this several minutes before Starship liftoff. You can always get these answers before the media starts barking. Cheers!
@elonmusk Amazing flight & data collection today. It's too bad the media can't read the mission profile right from the website to know what's expected but there's also the um...unexpected...potential POGO or no go? It was a great day for a Launch! π€π
