I think it is kind of cool if people start coming back to witness these amazing rocket launches. I remember very well how special the shuttle launches were. Saw many from hotel balcony balcony's back then. It should help the local economy too.

We can see them from in The Villages, sitting on our front porch. So cool! Best at night.

I fell asleep in my chair waiting for it. I woke up when I heard the rumble here in South Brevard. By the time I got my flip flops on and out the door, I didn't get to see the rocket rise; but did get to see the flame as it went East. The sound from the pressure on the earth at take off continued to rumble for a couple more minutes. Long rumble with this rocket. Awesome.

Watching those twin boosters land in tandem was like something out of an old sci-fi movie. We watch any of them we can from Indian River Drive.

I thought they were not saving these on the night shot. I could not see them falling from our house-too late getting out there I suppose.

Next launch a Falcon 9 on April 2, delivering supplies to the space station.

That was just a general comment on that last big launch.
It'll be good to see one of those at night in the future.
