Image above is of a SpaceX Falcon 9 Launch on Dec 30th, 2024 at 12:40AM. Taken from Jupiter Beach, FL. Main rocket is heading down range towards orbit to deploy Starlink satellites. The booster is coming back to land on the drone ship and is visible through the clouds along with the reflection of the engine exhaust on the water.
Below are additional photos taken of the launch. First image is as it takes off and appears above the skyglow from a condo building on the coast. Next pictures are taken as it goes downrange. The final 2 pictures show the rocket going down range and the booster landing on the drone ship.
