This was a GREAT launch. I watched a bit on YouTube, then about 5-8 min outside to see the balance, until the 2nd stage disappeared in the southern sky. Just when I was heading inside I saw the rocket plume from the 1st stage doing it’s re-entry burn, before it disappeared below the nearby hills. Very impressive, considering I walked out about 40 feet to see the show!
Thanks Elon!

Only once have I been able to see the whole show from Myrtle Beach. The rocket heading up the coast overhead and then the boosters coming down directly out over the ocean and disappearing under the horizon to the drone barge(s). The weather has just never cooperated other times I was there.
