SpaceX has a Falcon 9 rocket scheduled to launch from Florida this Thursday, July 9, giving Space Coast fans another chance to watch a fiery climb into the sky.
Residents along the Volusia County coastline are well-positioned to take in the show, as launches from the area are often visible up and down the Atlantic shore on clear days.
Timing your viewing spot early is always a good idea — waterfront parks, beach accesses, and elevated areas with an unobstructed eastern horizon tend to offer the best sightlines for a liftoff heading out over the ocean.
As always, launch schedules are subject to change based on weather and technical conditions, so checking for updates close to launch time is recommended before heading out.
