Pretty cool to just watch the launch of Starlink Group 7-18 from Vandenberg Space Force Base. We are north quite aways, about 60 miles or so, in Cayucos and it was headed away from us. It was still a thrill. It took about 5 minutes for the rumbling sound of the launch to reach us.
The last launch I watched in person was Apollo 11 at Kennedy Space Center on July 16, 1969. (We got married July 16, 1988.)
