A few nights ago we were able to see the latest SpaceX launch from Cape Canaveral, right here in our park. This was the second launch we have witnessed since we arrived, and both were quite impressive even though we were over 100 miles away. The first one was a manned launch, heading to the international space station, and this latest rocket had another 60 satellites. Even though I knew photos probably wouldn't amount to much, I decided to try and zoom in and see what it looked like. After I downloaded them, I noticed something we didn't see with our naked eye...the first stage separation as it fell back to earth. The cropped photo below shows two lit up dots in the corners, but if you right click on the photo, save it, and then zoom in, you should be able to see both more closely. How kewl!
