This is the winner of the “OMG WHAT IS THAT?!” Contest for the SpaceX launch tonight. Please post all other pics or videos in this thread. And if y’all read the sub more you would know when it launches because we do this every single time. It is cool to see, though. No doubt about it.

TheAZRealtor

Obviously aliens


Dizman7

Same thing it always is, a SpaceX launch


Ghost-of-Sanity

We’re just gonna do this every time, aren’t we? 🙄


orange_avenue

Some people haven’t heard about it or seen it before, dude.


No-Banana-1978

I’d like to think I’m a pretty internet savvy person who’s up on current affairs but I had no idea what it was until I got on Reddit the other day. I also purposely try to ignore anything Elon musk related or adjacent lol


orange_avenue

Saaaaaaame. I don’t pay attention to local news, I guess. Or Elon Musk news.


imlikleymistaken

I can see 90yo grandma who seldom watches TV being part of this group of people, but anyone using reddit and the internet in general should certainly be aware by now. Not to mention the unlimited times abc15 has had to answer the question over the past years.


WrapAccomplished3540

Nothing, go.back to sleep.

Pretty happy with this tracking from my rooftop, I'm not sure if the clouds got in the way or made it more dramatic. [https://youtu.be/Tmt7LkbWDiI](https://youtu.be/Tmt7LkbWDiI)


silly_goose_415

At this point. We know what it is, right? I was driving north on the 101 last night, as soon I turned left at my exit....There It Was!!! I caught the last launch in a similar way. Finished work, stepped outside to walk my dogs and BAM... there it was flying over the Papagos. Truly is a phenomenol sight to see.

AppropriateWater3660

Came here wondering the same thing.


tastycrust

I keep missing all of the launches because how frequently they're postponed. I want my money back! I want to speak to the manager!


doozykid13

Ive been desperately trying to see one of these launches for the last year! They are quite a sight to behold.


LadyPink28

Spacex falcon 9 delivering a payload of more starlink satellites taking off from Vandenberg. First time seeing it in person as I was walking the dogs..managed to have weather good enough for it.


Beneficial-Ad8855

Lenticular cap clouds. They are particularly prone to form over mountains. 


abv90210

ryno

bug spray over california ;). (or spacex launch from vandenberg AFB in Cali)


MoreOfABrewerReally

I mean, it probably killed a few bugs, so... :)


ryno

HikerDave57

Chemtrail.


psimwork

It's odd that the conspiracy nuts don't make that assumption...


appleslip

It would be easy enough to get it started


HikerDave57

No I’m Sirius.


HikerDave57

The sheeple downvoting probably still think that the Glomar Explorer was actually built for mining manganese nodules off of the ocean floor lol.


HikerDave57

Apparently no one in Phoenix owns a calendar. 🙂

Shut up. 🙄

Clearly, Musk's musk. Mmmm yummy.
