SpaceX Falcon 9 Starlink Mission January 2, 2024

This image captures the 1st Launch of 2024 from Vandenberg Space Force Base - A SpaceX Falcon 9 conducting a Starlink Mission. Of special note, 6 of the satellites deployed are the first to feature Direct-To-Cell capabilities, this will allow network operators to provide seamless global access,
My tripod and camera are approximately 11.1 miles from the launchpad at a known viewpoint for Vandenberg launches without having to have access to the actual Space Force Base. I used the Nikon Z6 ii with an FTZ adapter and 16-35mm Nikkor lens @19mm, f/16, 106 sec., ISO 100. Edited with Capture One 23.
