So, this morning about 40 minutes prior to our sunrise, I was down on Pensacola Beach to try and see if I can get the photos of the Jellyfish plume. I was amazed that about 20-30 seconds after the launch we saw the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket in the air. Immediately after the booster separation, the Jellyfish plume formed.
The Jellyfish affect occurs when the rockets exhaust v***r is struck by high altitude sunlight while it's still pretty dark where you are standing.
This was my first attempt, kind of grainy due to the high ISO setting, and with the rocket moving away at a couple thousand miles an hour, still pretty good atttempt.☺🚀
