How to watch from Bermuda

Possible visibility from Bermuda, conditions permitting.

Face wsw (258.3172537187819°) and sweep along the trajectory. Start scanning the sky about six minutes after liftoff.

Sweep order (approximate)

  1. 01southwest
  2. 02west
  3. 03northwest
  4. 04north
  5. 05northeast

You are standing at the amber dot in the middle. The solid cyan arrow is where to aim your eyes — roughly where the rocket will appear highest in the sky.

Lighting note

At night, look for the faint glow of the exhaust plume rather than the rocket itself. Let your eyes adjust for several minutes before liftoff, and avoid looking at phone screens.
