35th commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station operated by SpaceX. The flight will be conducted under the second Commercial Resupply Services contract with NASA. Cargo Dragon 2 brings supplies and payloads, including critical materials to directly support science and research investigations that occur onboard the orbiting laboratory.
Target orbit: Low Earth Orbit
Possible visibility from Bermuda, conditions permitting.
Face west (258.7758149987145°) and sweep along the trajectory. Start scanning the sky about six minutes after liftoff.
Sweep order (approximate)
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. The dotted cyan arc traces the rocket's motion across the sky, with the arrow showing which way it travels.
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.

The rocket rises low in the SW, arcs across the sky toward W, and fades in the WNW when engines cut out. Under clear skies and with minimal light pollution, the rocket plume is typically visible as a slow-moving bright star between these times.
Times assume on-time liftoff. Add ~30–90 sec uncertainty for typical per-mission timing variance; launch delays move the whole window.
