Sonic booms heard across Space Coast during SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch
Original: LISTEN: Sonic booms on Space Coast during SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch
A SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch from Florida's Space Coast produced loud sonic booms that rattled communities along the region as the rocket's boosters returned. Local outlet WESH shared audio of the booms, which occur when the side boosters descend through the sound barrier ahead of landing. Residents routinely report the double boom as one of the most striking parts of Falcon Heavy launches.
Why now: A Falcon Heavy launch just occurred, and the loud sonic booms drew local attention.
