How to see a rocket launch from the beach
The beach offers an excellent vantage point for observing rocket launches, though it can be challenging to determine the correct direction.
Following a remarkable week in the space sector that included the historic maiden launch of Blue Origin’s New Glenn and SpaceX’s dramatic Starship explosion and booster recovery, the launch agenda for the Space Coast will continue Tuesday morning with another reliable Starlink mission.
Details: A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is set to deliver another batch of Starlink internet satellites to low-Earth orbit from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, according to an advisory from the Federal Aviation Administration.
The early morning launch window on Tuesday lasts 4½ hours, commencing at 12:13 a.m. EST and concluding at 4:44 a.m. The Falcon 9 will launch from Launch Complex 40. SpaceX has not yet disclosed additional information regarding the mission.
No sonic booms are expected over Central Florida — instead, the first-stage booster of the rocket will aim to land on a SpaceX drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
The Starlink mission is anticipated to mark the eighth orbital launch this year from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.
