Falcon 9 Dragon Crewed Capsule Launch
Apr 23, 2021 06:41:26 #
At 0550 just before sunrise this morning, a SpaceX Falcon 9 with the Dragon crewed capsule lifted off from Cape Canaveral heading to the ISS....an absolutely flawless and beautiful launch. This was taken about 45 miles away in Wabasso, FL along the Indian River Lagoon about 20 miles south of Melbourne (180 second exposure). Another glorious morning to be had...Cheers, download is recommended.

Great shot. In New Smyrna Beach we saw the the two boosters returning to their sea based platforms right off the coast. You captured the spectacular scene very well. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks LJ, it was definitely spectacular, especially after the rocket reached the upper atmosphere and the sun on the rocket trail, the plume, the boosters, made for a beautiful sight, one of the best I've seen. Saw a Falcon Heavy in late 2019 and watched the booster came all the way back and actually land at the Cape, I have some shots of those, that was superb....ain't FL great, Cheers
