Details:
I was fortunate as the weather cleared just an hour before the launch and I captured the pair 23 minutes later above the Netherlands. But what the images don’t show is the impressive sight I had with binoculars. The Dragon and Falcon upper stage pair was closely seperated and surrounded by twee smaller dots of debris. These two fainter companions were tumbling around. Some told me already these would be the solar array fairing covers
