I watched them go up! And right on schedule. November 15, 2020 4:46 pm ER

Due North, a deep red exhaust (atmospheric reddening, or is that the fuel for the first stage?). I watched it in my 10×50 monocular, the exhaust plume plainly visible, until it reached about 20 degrees above the horizon, then it flickered out.

It never gets old.
