The launch was tracked using custom software and trajectory data supplied by FlightClub.io and filmed using a NexStar 4SE and Blackmagic Pocket Cinema 4K. Perseverance was tracked as it departed from earth using an 8" Meade LX200 Classic and SBIG ST-2000XCM Camera near Cape Canaveral. I also used a 24" Planewave CDK on the iTelescope.net network in California to track the spacecraft and perform parallax measurements with simultaneous images.
