Here is a compilation of videos from 3 webcams at different locations at our Ranch in Solvang, as well as the hand held video with my Galaxy S23 in the lower left frame. Need to press the PLAY button. Video is a bit over 2 min.

Neat launch to watch!!

2018-10-07 SpaceX launch of SAOCOM 1A from Vandenberg AFB

Video of the SpaceX launch of SAOCOM 1A, a radar observation satellite for Argentina,from Vandenberg AFB on 2018-10-07 shortly after second stage separation. The second stage is continuing its burn into orbit at the left, and the Falcon 9 first stage is going through a series of boost-back burns to head back to its successful landing at VAFB, the first west coast landing on dry land instead of the floating platforms. This was shot from our Ranch in Solvang which is about 30 miles east of Vandenberg AFB.

Video of takeoff of SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg AFB viewed from our ranch. This video was taken from my drone flying about 400ft above our ranch. That drone altitude lets us see the Falcon rocket a bit earlier, and follow the first stage down toward its succesful landing a bit longer!
