Anyone in the area of Cocoa Beach/ Titusville gonna watch the early morning shuttle launch? Am thinking about driving the family over as this is the last night launch of a shuttle.

Don't understand your post Jack, it's 4:39 on Sunday morning, but NASA calls it a night launch, that help out?

^ I wish I could.....I grew up in that area; went to "Satellite High School".

The Shuttle program was sort of a "big deal" then.

I saw the one that blew up, and I was in the river for the first launch afterwards.

I really do wish I could be there to see it off.

We have wanted to go for years, can see the launches from our backyard on west coast, but want to experience it from up close.

I've seen three launches.

We rent a condo at Cocoa.

VERY cool to see...

Worth the trip. I have been on the eastcoast of Florida since 1980 and have seen many launches. I live only 60 miles north of the cape.

I hope that you have left by now.

Oh yes, I left and drove for nearly 5 hours to get there at around 3:30, got great seats downtown Titusville at the Space Park. It was chilly, mid 40's I think. But most of all it was packed. Had a perfect view of the launch pad, with the lights streaming up into the sky. And then they scrubbed the launch, because of clouds. Wow, everything had gone pretty good until then. Then it all turned to crap. There were so many thousands of people there, more than any event I've ever been to(baseball, football, concert), and only two roads going out. It was about 2 miles per hour for 2 1/2 hours. Oh well, we still had a great time with all my family, and a nice breakfast on way home. Still have to do it again(on my wife's bucket list), will try Cocoa Beach next time.

No problem Jack, after reading it 4 times I figured it out. Up until then, I thought you were hammered.
