Falcon 9 Rocket Flies Over the Dominican Republic -- February 18, 2025

Just 30 minutes prior to this, my wife Elisa happened to see on Instagram a map showing the flight path of the Falcon 9. We didn't know that this was coming! I checked and got a live feed from Cape Canaveral of the launch. I figured we might see something if we looked to the north-west. Wow, did we. The Falcon 9 put on an amazing display. On January 25, 2025 we had seen a meteor-bolide fireball on a similar track. That was quite something, but this was really amazing. You can hear our excitement in the audio.

Thr bright object is Venus. The rocket appears to turn off its engines shortly after (from our point of view) it passes Venus.
