SpaceX rocket seen in NC skies Tuesday night
TRUMP SAYS IT WOULD BE A
CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE TO OUR
DOMESTIC PRISON SYSTEM.
>> THE LATEST ROCKET LAUNCH BY
SPACE-X COULD BE SEEN ALL THE
WAY HERE IN THE TRIANGLE.
METEOROLOGIST CHRIS MICHAELS
HAS A LOOK AT SOME OF THE COOL
PHOTOS VIEWER SENT TO US LAST
NIGHT AND HOW WE WERE ABLE TO
SEE IT THIS FAR FROM THE
LAUNCH SITE. CHRIS, THESE
PHOTOS LOOK AMAZING. THEY WERE
INCREDIBLE. YEAH, REALLY.
JUST A SHOUT OUT TO SOME OF
OUR VIEWERS WHO GOT REALLY
GREAT SHOTS. THIS WAS KIND OF
THE BEGINNING OF THE LAUNCH
FROM NANCY IN HOKE COUNTY.
AND YOU CAN SEE THAT LITTLE
BIT OF A GLOW.
>> THEN THERE WAS ANOTHER SHOT
HERE FROM STEADMAN. THANKS TO
JOSEPH, WHERE YOU CAN SEE THE
BOOSTER SEPARATION. SO THAT WAS
KIND OF THE NEXT PHASE OF THE
LAUNCH. AND THEN YOU HEAD
TOWARD THE COAST AND YOU KIND
OF SEE THAT FINAL PHASE.
YOU SEE THE ROCKET THERE, THE
BOOSTER SEPARATION. AND THEN
WHAT'S CALLED NOT THE LOOSE
IN CLOUD SAID IN THESE WILL
FORM IN A HIGHER LEVEL OF THE
ATMOSPHERE AND IN GOT A GREAT
SHOT OF THAT FROM ATLANTIC
BEACH. HERE'S HOW IT ALL
HAPPENED. YOU HAVE THE SUN
SETTING TO THE WEST, THE
CURVATURE OF THE EARTH. THE
ROCKET GOING HIGH, AN ALTITUDE
SO THAT SETTING SUN WAS ABLE
TO ELIMINATE THE MULTIPLE
STAGES OF THE ROCKET LAUNCH.
AND YOU GUYS GOT SOME GREAT
PHOTOS. GREAT VIDEO OF THAT.
YOU CAN KEEP SENDING IT TO WRAL
