SpaceX Launch May 2022
May 6 @ 5:42 a.m. SpaceX (Elon Musk) successfully launched another 53 of its Starlink internet satellites into orbit. For the space flight to be visible, the launch must occur near sunrise or twilight when sunlight interacts with ice particles left behind in the rocket’s contrail. These pics were snapped poolside at PAV. What a sight! Read more: https://www.orlandosentinel.com/space/os-ne-space-jellyfish-ufo-spacex-rocket-launch-20220506-yjdla7sf3je25oucge5vuc3ufy-story.html

The transfer to the new pool heating system is complete. The old water cooled system was replaced with new state-of-the-art air cooled titanium coiled heaters which will save us thousands of dollars in electric and water bills.
