Default Re: Place to view space shuttle launch

People start arriving as early as 10 hours before launch. I believe launch is scheduled around 5.15, so I woul make sure you are there before noon to get a good parking spot and place to sit. I have gone a couple of launches and it is something that everyone including children should see. Of course the upsetting item is when the launch is delayed a day or two and the kids are really let down. It is a must see and do while in Florida.
