Launches from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

The world's busiest spaceport. Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Florida's Space Coast hosts SpaceX Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches from SLC-40 and LC-39A (adjacent to Kennedy), plus ULA's Atlas V and Vulcan from SLC-41, and Blue Origin's New Glenn from LC-36. Launches typically follow easterly azimuths toward the Atlantic for orbital insertion.

Tracked from orbit by NOAA GOES-19 (GOES-East, 75.2W). LaunchDetect confirms every launch from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station within 30 to 90 seconds of ignition from independent thermal infrared satellite imagery.
