Stunning pictures of the Space X’s launch have been taken from a C-17 cockpit over the Atlantic.
SpaceX’s launch of 52 more Starlink satellites was visible all along the East Coast of the United States, generating footage of Saturday’s sunset launch.
The crew of an US Air Force C-17 was able to take pictures of the launch from the cockpit.

The Falcon 9 rocket launched the satellites from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station Saturday at 7:32 p.m. EDT (2332 GMT).
Due to clear conditions across the coastline, it was visible at least as far north as Long Island.
