There was a satellite launch from Vandenburg tonite (around 9:40 pm). I went to the Pismo Pier to watch and take some photos but I didn’t get my camera set up in time 🙁
I think next time I’m going to go down to Vandenburg if I’m going to take photos as Pismo is too far away. If you are interested in viewing future launches, this page has a lot of info on it.
