Just a fun one for the update thread while we're in the coast:
Server demand. Fun "in the bucket" routine for visitors to the site. From the countdown, then people concentrate on the webcast, to post landing and into the coast phase where people surge to discuss what they watched
The *lowest* point in this screenshot (still a lot of people!) is where we would have gone "Bad Gateway" just a few years ago. Thank you to the L2 members, as they've paid for this monster hosting package to allow us to cope with the surges, etc

Epic view from Harris Grade Road in search of the perfect launch streak shot. All events clearly visible in the dark sky save for the landing burn which was over the horizon.
