Missed the launch by 15 min. because I had to go pick up dinner. Managed to catch the replay on Youtube. Night launches are outstanding. I hope to make the trip to FL for one some time. Successful stage 1 rocket recovery still amazes me...landing a rocket on a floating barge in the dark just boggles my mind.

Clear skies here at my house, gave us a prefect night-time view of the ascent (not the launch) and the thrust sound from my patio last night.

RB you need to learn to let comments or lack there of slide off your back

I think most people knew of this event although my youngest was like huh when C-6 asked if he was gonna view? 2 of my offspring do not own tv's so they would have had to see it on the computer butt he may have we did view and yeah its to see and imagine being strapped into that seat

I was more curious about what they would eat & how they go potty

Thought the TV coverage of the launch was awful. I was really looking forward to seeing a night launch and they completely botched it.
