I don't think any of my photos are all that great, but I'm nonetheless happy to contribute them.NASA Social got to be at section J of the NASA Causeway:https://imgur.com/gallery/y3nwjF7
The fact that you photographed *everything* is fantastic just by itself, Lupi. A lot of views of things we don't normally get to see. And there are some great shots in there as well.

Parker Solar Probe now over 1 million km from the Earth
Drop the adjective "wonderful" and you'll capture my feelings about this "monster"! This is my fourth mission of the year as prime NASA Electrical, and this "monster" is putting the finishing touches on wearing me down.And I've still got Pegasus/ICON to finish off! I'm so glad I'll have all of next year to rest up!

Hey Jim and Kim,out of interest, what did you do for this mission specifically? Its always very interesting to hear peoples stories about their hands-on work, would be interested to know some details on what you did. Anyone else here worked that mission? Would be interested in your stories as well!
It's not quite as close as Lupi was, but I was able to get a few shots of launch last night as well. https://dunder.smugmug.com/Rocketry/Parker-Solar-Probe/First time seeing a Heavy in person. A little more moonlight would have been nice, but it was still an amazing experience.
