I grew up watching the Apollo program. I was young, but I recall the moon launches, landings and the splash downs. Exciting times. Team work and friendly competition to push ourselves for a better world.
Yes, I was one of many to watch the SpaceX launch on Sunday, November 15, 2020. It was a beautiful evening to launch four US astronauts into space from Kennedy Space Center onboard the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying a Crew Dragon capsule for a rendezvous with the International Space Station high above the Florida sky.
And then we joined neighbors outside to see what, if anything we could see down here in Palmetto Bay. We think we saw it, did we? At least we enjoyed the first clear night in far too long.
A friend in Merritt Island Florida posted a few pics taken from her neighborhood. Now that looks dramatic; as if the entire city was lit up from the rocket engines.
