We’re currently right on the beach 40m north of Cape Canaveral.

Don’t these NRO missions usually get fired into a northbound polar orbit?

We will be up tonight to see it for sure!

The one Friday is supposed to be south orbit. And the booster is supposed to land at Canaveral instead of the drone ship.

There are some birds that need that horizontal orbit. It’s not that unusual.

One of the things I look forward to moving to Florida is being, part of the launches. I’ve been involved in a number of launches and they never get old.
