I almost talked myself into a trip to Orlando this weekend in hopes of catching a launch, but at the time they were saying it would likely be February for the next FH launch.
We decided on San Diego instead. It's been fun, but...dammit. |

One of my fellow dive instructors recently moved to Vero Beach and when I go there for diving (actually diving in the Keys), I plan to time it with a launch of something...

SpaceX is targeting Friday, February 17 at 11:12 a.m. PT (19:12 UTC) for a Falcon 9 launch of 51 Starlink satellites to low-Earth orbit from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E) at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. If needed, a backup opportunity is available on Saturday, February 18 at 10:58 a.m. PT (18:58 UTC).
The first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich, DART, and six Starlink missions. Following stage separation, Falcon 9’s first stage will land on the Of Course I Still Love You droneship stationed in the Pacific Ocean. A live webcast of this mission will begin about five minutes prior to liftoff.

First time seeing this for me. Video taken from a Starlink satellite. Falcon 9 second stage de-orbit burn. Watch the top right:

Hope this attaches...
The sons of a lady from the Netherlands who I met on a dive trip are in Florida and got to see the launch. Very cool. https://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/63f0c735...2126049184.mp4

I still can't figure if those youtube feeds that claim to show Earth from ISS are real or not.
You figure NASA would have a live chat for Astronauts to answer questions over the internet |
