TL;DR

BlackSky’s Gen-3 satellite captured SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy liftoff from Kennedy Space Center on April 29, 2026, including a pad shot and ascent, as it carried the ViaSat-3 F3 satellite to geosynchronous transfer orbit. BlackSky notes its 35 cm ground resolution enables viewing launch-related details from orbit, and this marks Falcon Heavy’s first flight in 18 months.
