Bridgecrest has a Bortle class of 6 (suburban skies — ISS and bright satellites visible). The Gulf Coast region averages about 120 clear nights per year.
Launch Visibility

Viewing Tips for Bridgecrest
Florida's east coast offers the best launch viewing in the US. For satellite watching, head inland away from coastal resort lighting. The Big Bend region of Florida has excellent dark skies.

What to Look For
Satellites look like steady, bright stars moving smoothly across the sky. They don't blink like airplanes.
