After the separation, the first stage booster landed. Of course, I still love your droneship in the Pacific Ocean.
The rocket was visible from a point around Southern California, including Los Angeles. According to IT’s announcement, SPACEX said, “Santa Barbag, Saint -Luis Obba Biscu, and Ventura County may hear one or more Sonic boom during the launch, but residents experience the weather and other conditions. It may depend on. “

If the rocket and its exhaust plums are clear, if the sky is clear, you may see hundreds of miles along the coast. Immediately after the sunset and just before sunrise, the release provides the best scenery because the rocket reflects the sunlight in the dark sky background.
The sunrise was 6:55 am on Friday, Los Angeles.
The photos from the New Berry Park, Torance, Mission Hills, and other places showed a rocket exhaust plume illuminated in the sky after the stage separation.

SPACEX has a starlink constellation of a satellite that goes around the earth about 340 miles, and is trapped in space by a company rocket. The Starlink network is designed to provide high -speed Internet anywhere in the world.
If the condition of the light is correct, the satellite will appear on the train when parade over the night sky. The satellite may be seen for the first few minutes after sunset when the sun is below the horizon before sunrise, but satellites are enough to reflect direct sunlight.
