That wasn't thunder, Space Coast.
The #SES12 #Falcon9 rocket was successfully launched by #SpaceX at 12:45(ET) Monday morning.
Here are some quick field edits, and remote cameras will be retrieved in the morning.
Congratulations to the SpaceX team!

This is the #SpaceX #Falcon9 rocket seen 13 minutes before it would successfully launch the #JCSAT16 satellite. The first stage was successfully landed on the drone ship "Of Course I Still Love You" postioned in the Atlantic Ocean.

At 5:27pm (ET), SpaceX launched a Falcon9 rocket from LC-39A, and ~8 minutes later, the rocket booster returned to nearby Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. The rocket carried 40 OneWeb sattelites to orbit.
I'm not even going to try to explain this because We're Here is looking at Elon Musk's Brainstem today.
SpaceX’s Starship-Super Heavy has launched on Lego Ideas ( ideas.lego.com/projects/5199f8dc-34ad-492a-91e2-0008c8e37f81 ), This perfect partner for your Saturn V is only 1,400 supporters away from formal review! It stands 106cm tall & is 1:110 scale. Front & rear fins actuate and the cockpit opens to reveal reclinable pilot & passenger seating.
There's still time to support SpaceX Lego, only 1,400 tickets left for Starship-Super Heavy!
Protesters at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul, Minnesota on March 4, 2025. Taking place on the afternoon of President Trump’s first address to joint session in congress, they are protesting the actions of the Trump Administration and Elon Musk’s involvement.
The protest was organized as part of the “50501” protests taking place around the country. This is the first of two planned protests this week. Another is planned for Saturday at the State Capitol.

I was extremely fortunate to have a very cool vantage point for the #SpaceX #CRS15 #Falcon9 launch early Friday (June 29) morning: 526 feet in the air on the roof of NASA's iconic Vehicle Assembly Building. During the day, the view is just incredible, but at night (or early morning), it is dark on the roof. Floodlights light the rocket on the pad (SLC-40, 4.75 miles away), but everything else is dark. Save for some aviation lights mounted to the building, flashlights we carry with us, and, in this case, a nearly Full Moon behind us, a small group (Craig Bailey captured a great shot of a few of us shooting the spectacle; it's in the Florida Today gallery) waited in the dark to be amazed and delighted.
At 5:42 am the rocket ignited, bathing the Space Coast in light. Although I am aware of how bright this light is, and I know how it (briefly) affects things (see: Chris Gebhardt and the 15-foot alligator), seeing it from above is fantastic.
At the time of launch, a thin layer of haze had begun to settle over the area, and (in addition to being an irritant to everyone shooting at ground-level) it served nicely as a palette onto which the bright light of ignition cast sudden and long shadows. As the rocket climbed toward space, the shadows moved, growing shorter. It was a hypnotizing dance that caught my eye shortly after the rocket cleared the tower (and my initial frame), as I was removing the camera from the tripod to get ready for the epic downrange plume.
Although the plume lit by the rising Sun was undoubtedly the signature feature of this launch, watching the light move across and interact with the land below will, for me at least, be a very memorable thing.
This tight crop of my streak shot doesn't do the scene justice, but you can make out the haze and some faint (and sadly, not moving) shadows from trees and such.
Too Long; Didn't Read: Rockets are bright.

SpaceX sure knows how to put on a show: This was the *amazing* view of the SAOCOM-1b Falcon9 booster returning to LZ1.
My standard amazed caption applies: Wow, just wow.

At 7:27pm (ET) Sunday, NASA astronauts Mike Hopkins, Victor Glover, and Shannon Walker and JAXA astronaut Soichi Noguchi lifted off from NASA's Kennedy Space Center and historic LC-39A for their mission aboard the International Space Station. The SpaceX Crew Dragon, named "Resilience" by the crew, is the first human-rated commercial spaceship, and this launch marks the return of operational spaceflight from American soil.
SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch lit up the night sky with the ViaSat-3 Americas satellite at 8:26 p.m. EDT from LC-39A on NASA's Kennedy Space Center.
SpaceX Falcon 9 launch with the Axiom-2 mission headed to the ISS at 5:37 p.m. EDT, from LC-39A on the Kennedy Space Center
Seen at SpaceX headquarters this afternoon: a huge image of Mars adorns the wall to Elon and Gwynne’s offices. Keeping an eye on the prize.
A special delivery arrived in the back room – the Dragon spacecraft sits in a glass box clean room with scientists all around performing post-flight analysis. It looks like an alien craft in the secret lair of Area 51, evoking gasps from even the SpaceX executives when they first set eyes upon it. (I had a similar reaction)
Update: a short SpaceX video on the path to Mars
SpaceX launched the Starlink 4-12 mission with 53 more broadband internet satellites at 12:42 a.m. from SLC-40 on the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station
July 4th, 2020 started in fine form as the SpaceX Fleet returned to Port Canaveral carrying the recently launched and landed GPSIII Falcon9 booster. The rocket landed on the drone ship "Just Read The Instructions."
It was a busy morning, as just before the JRTI entered port, the other drone ship "Of Course I Still Love You" disembarked in preparation for the Starlink booster landing next week.

This was the scene this (Thurs) morning as the #SpaceX recovery team was removing the legs from the #ArabSat6a #FalconHeavy center core. The #SpaceXFleet returned to @portcanaveral at 2am, carrying the successfully landed first stage. It’s on its side (and the top is missing) after high seas caused the rocket to tip over.

SpaceX launched the Transporter-3 rideshare mission to a sun-synchronous orbit with 105 small microsatellites and nanosatellites for commercial and government customers Thurday morning at 10:25 a.m. EST. The first stage booster B1058-10 completed its' 10th flight with a RTLS landing at LZ-1 on the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station
At 3:34 pm today (Monday, 10/30/17) #SpaceX successfully launched the #KoreaSat5A satellite atop a #Falcon9 rocket and, a few moments later, landed the first stage of the Falcon aboard the "Of Course I Still Love You" droneship about 400 miles out in the Atlantic.
This is the view from the Kennedy Space Center Press Site, with the countdown clock and the SpaceX webcast visible to the right.
