    NASA TV is supposed to carry it, if you get it... (Channel 346 on DirecTV) Otherwise, there SHOULD be a computer streaming feed either off nasa.gov or the SpaceX website... they USUALLY run a live streaming feed of their launches...

    Yup, just got back from watching it-- not much of a view due to the clouds, but we got to see it for a few moments. I was pretty surprised by how bright it was from the other side of the state.
    Anyway, I'm glad it was a successful flight. I wouldn't want anything to happen to that ice cream!

    From here in east Orlando, we had an interesting view. The clouds on the horizon lit up for a few seconds before we saw the rocket. We saw it bright and clear for a second or two before it went behind the clouds. As it approached the clouds, they reflected more of the rocket's ligth producing something that looked a bit like sunset or sunrise. We could still track it when it was behind the clouds since it caused them to glow.
