Ahoy!
SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base here in California just at sunset. I've seen contrails from rockets launched from there before...and whilst those were spectacular, they were NOTHING as Beautiful as this last one!
Here are different views of the same launch...from different distances away from Ground Zero, each with their own beautiful perspective. The last one is from Ground Zero launch all the way until every Iridium Satellite is launched...but it also contains a lot of "commentary" at the beginning. -*(
