Godspeed, CRS-25

A SpaceX Falcon 9 launches the Cargo Dragon 2 spacecraft to the International Space Station for the CRS-25 mission, seen all the way from Freeport, in the Bahamas. With it being a clear evening and the rocket launching roughly twenty minutes after sunset, it created this distinct "jellyfish" effect in the sky thanks to the way that the already set sun hit the gases exhausted by the craft. With it lighting up the sky in this way and my first experience watching a launch from another country, this is now one of my favorite launches ever!
