A relatively quiet week in launches is expected, with SpaceX's Falcon 9 leading the schedule and a Chinese ZhuQue-2E also set to launch. This is good news for sky-watchers, as the Falcon 9 launches may be visible to those in the vicinity of the launch sites, offering a thrilling sight. Sky-watchers on the west coast may want to look up to catch a glimpse of the Falcon 9 launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.
