Last time for a good viewing for a bit. Been watching it each night past week. It's very easy to find as it is the brightest moving object.
For Dallas but should work most places in Texas.

Thanks for the heads up. I remember watching Spudnik as it flew by overhead as a kid.

Went out with my binoculars, looking with them I could see the shape of the light bouncing off the winglets things, instead of a round light

That was cool. Directly straight over the top here. Really bright when it was straight overhead. Pretty cool deal. Thanks for the heads up.

These guys are going to be up there for a while. If Elon Musk has a sense of humor he'd get gorilla suits for the recovery team. And have them riding horses.
