Astronomy Picture of the Day: Skygazers on the Beach
Skygazers on the Beach Kona, a young boxer, is a dog who loves splashing in the waves along Solana Beach near San Diego, planet Earth . But he paused here, at least briefly, during an early evening romp on October 7. Along with two people friends he gazes skyward in this snapshot, dazzled by the flight of a Falcon 9 rocket . Their seaside view is of the sunlit exhaust plumes from the rocket's first stage thrusters as it returns to Vandenberg Air Force base, its launch site over 250 miles to the north .
