While Kennedy Space Center is about an hour's drive, you can walk over to our beach and get a great view of KSC launches. This picture was taken from Apollo Beach, just down the road. After the rocket disappears, wait just a minute or two and you'll hear the low rumble of the rocket's takeoff. It never gets old for us! Google "Kennedy Space Center Launch Schedule" and get the "Space Coast Launches" app to see the schedule.
