I was able to visit the Cape yesterday with my daughter and her family. They live in Australia and her husband was thrilled to get close enough to a launch to ‘feel it’. Awesome day. Unfortunately, low ceiling allowed only 10 or 15 seconds of viewing. Thanks for posting.

Still sounds great! SpaceX' launch cadence has risen from last year, when it was larger than ever. If today's Starship 6 launch from Boca Chica is successful, it probably means a flattening of F9 launch numbers, perhaps a decline, and if it's phased out (a lot of the launches are for the Starlink broadband constellation; the Starship is supposed to supersede the F9 for those), it would seem there could be an end to F9 launches. That'll be good news for the other launch providers, and since Starship launches may also be starting at the Cape, good news for everyone. :^)
