SpaceX ended the year with a bang with this successful launch of a pre-flown two-stage Falcon 9 booster from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California this evening, their final mission for 2017. The launch had quite a few people, including me, standing around with smartphones pointed to the sky, wondering at first what this was in the sky. It was quite a sight!
You were so lucky ! Super nice pics. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for taking a look.
Love the picture with the palm trees.
Thanks!
Thanks for the post! What a crazy sight to witness! :) glad you were able to look at the sky in the moment! SpaceX continues to do amazing things
Just walked out of Whole Foods, right into. Look on-line for better pictures. Looked like a big, glowing fish.
Absolutely Crazy! I had know idea they were going to do the test, so I think I would have been very startled.
Not a test. It’s a business. This is the second time this year that they launched satellites for Iridium that will help improve air traffic control.
wow that is very cool! thank you for correcting me! I has just assumed (naively) that it was a test for one of their rocket systems!
This time of year, it could have been Santa Claus ;-)
