This is one of several shots I took of the SpaceX landing at the Cape yesterday,a momentous day for the space industry and in particular SpaceX for going beyond the lines.
Taken from the Cocoa Beach Pier.
My first post to this forum,which I really enjoy and hope to participate on a regular basis.

You mean launch, right? Are these two separate launch's or a photoshopped to add the second rocket?

BTW if you had clicked on the download feature we could see it better.

Thank you for sharing...They are exciting to see.

No sir,these are not photoshopped,what you see are the two outer cores of the Falcon Heavy rocket which consisted of a total of three cores such as these,they separated from the third core and returned to Cape Canaveral Air Force Station about 6 minutes after launch,the third core was to land on a barge int the Atlantic but ran low on fuel and subsequently faile in the attempt,hit the barge but was destroyed.
I am learning how to use the system and will in the future use the download feature as well as posting multiple pics.
Thanks for your comment.

JUST AMAZING! The 2 side boosters landed a couple of football fields apart !! AND at the SAME TIME :O :O
Too bad (by 10s of millions no doubt) they weren't able to recover the center booster intact.

I'm sure you've all seen this by now - -
If not - - you may want to fast forward to about the 20 minute point to see the actual Launch
