Falcon 9 Sighted Over Yavapai County

10/28/22

What was that bright white contrail that streaked across the night sky over the Tri-City area Thursday night? It wasn’t anything alien. It was the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocketship launching from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The Falcon 9 launched just after 6 p.m. It was carrying 53 Star Link satellites.
