It was a real dud here from the central San Joaquin Valley. There was no contrail whatsoever, just the light of the flame, which appeared as an airplane might. We’re already north of the launch, and the launch was basically due south, so people in LA or San Diego would have had a much better view.
Did anyone observe noctilucent clouds from it? I saw nothing.
No clouds or anything, just a little light show at staging.
Just too late into the evening for this one to have any sunlight at that altitude.
