Launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida about 90 minutes prior, 2:09 AM UTC April 28, 2025. Second stage is coasting, having already released the starlink satellites. Haziness is venting fuel backlit by the sun, the pulse (3:25) is a cold gas thruster firing forward to slow the second stage down for eventual re-entry (interestingly this thruster pulse is happening a bit later than the batch that went up last year). Camcorder view, then a replay of a portion from a skyward Wyze camera
