Thank you SoFreepers!

Watched the first couple of minutes live. Spectacular and stunning display of scientific progress. The afterburn turns into a rainbow of smoke over SoCal.

I didn’t hear a sonic boom, but I saw it flying through the sky over the ocean with a trail of light. It was beautiful. I wouldn’t have even known about it if not for this post.
