SpaceX StarLink launch from Death Valley - Mar.18th, 2024
This image was taken a few minutes after we stopped recording the event and the exhaust plum was still brightly lit by the recently set Sun.
That's the only still I took because I was recording a video on my phone to capture the entire sequence.
You can see the first stage after it clears the plume and again near the end of the video when it fires the rockets to slow for booster landing on a barge in the Pacific.
