Two years ago, during our time in southern Texas, we took a drive to Boca Chica Beach and discovered Starbase. At that time we had no idea what it was. I wrote about that adventure in the article below.

Now we find ourselves back in the same area, to discover that several launches are happening during our time here. This is the third launch we’ve witnessed already since arriving in September. All I can say is that if you ever have the opportunity to witness one in person yourself, just do it. There aren’t words to describe a first experience.

I watched live coverage most of the morning on television to make sure it was still a go for today and it was. They previously canceled Monday and Wednesday (yesterday).
