Description
English: SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy, the world’s most powerful operational rocket, launched the communications satellite Arabsat-6A into orbit for a Saudi Arabian firm just after 6 p.m. ET on Thursday. While most of us probably weren’t lucky enough to watch the launch from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Fla., we can still get a glimpse of the rocket’s condensation trails or contrails thanks to GOES East.
