SpaceX Falcon 9, Starlink 5-9, 05-14-2023 : Highlights
Rather than just capturing yet another streak shot of a night launch, I recorded video of it from the Bennett Causeway off of FL-528 in Cape Canaveral. Turns out video is hard and I have a lot to learn. That’s okay, it’s fun to learn and improve.
SpaceX, Falcon 9, Intelsat 40e, 04-07-2023
SpaceX Falcon9 lifted off at half midnight tonight from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station carrying Intelsat 40e to orbit.
I was due East of it, and perfectly aligned with the launch azimuth.

Static View of Liftoff of SpaceX Falcon 9, OneWeb 17 03-09-2023
This is what I see when I am photographing a rocket launch. This view is pretty much the same as the naked eye look. I was busy photographing stills, so the camera is static and doesn’t follow the rocket.
SpaceX, Falcon 9, OneWeb 17, 03/09/2023
SpaceX launched forty satellites for OneWeb, a global Internet connectivity firm. It was the 13th launch for Booster-1062, and the first time the venerable rocket stage returned to its launch site rather than landing at sea on one of SpaceX’s automated barges.
SpaceX, Falcon 9, Starlink 6-1, 02-27-2023
SpaceX launched 21 of its second-generation Starlink satellites from Cape Canaveral aboard a Falcon 9 on February 27, 2023.
SpaceX Falcon 9, Inmarsat I-6 F2, 02-18-2023
Falcon 9 carried dual-band, six-ton mobile communications relay station Inmarsat I-6 F2 to orbit for Inmarsat, a British company.
The launch was at 10:59pm local time at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station’s SLC-40 complex. It was a cloudy, muggy evening as a cold front approached, but the weather was deemed good enough for the successful launch.
Unfortunately, due to some bad luck and lack of a backup plan, these photos were taken through the trees on the banks of the Indian River. The low cloud deck made the show a very brief one after liftoff, though from time to time the rocket glared through a gap in the clouds.
