I tried to turn on the navigation bar but whatever Wayward did to the wordpress theme makes it completely fail to work. It’s hard to navigate, there’s information here but it’s all in a tangle of tags with no easy navigation. But with none of the parts that made a 2003 website good. I don’t mean to speak ill of those in the great beyond, but this website is organized like Wayward’s brain was, and jury-rigged to look like it was made in 2003. I’ve had some help developing a new beta map using html, css, and some assets Wayward left behind, but it needs a bit of polishing, and I’d like to adjust it to use something like an xml file to put locations in, instead of having them hardcoded in the html. And we’re dependent on a map built on a dead person’s google account, at that. Right now, as it’s implemented on google maps, we’re dependent on Google. A major part of that goal is redoing the map.The goal would be to run some banner/sidebar ads, not necessarily sponsored content. Restaurants in Port Canaveral, certain museums here on the mainland, etc. Places I already know, and would recommend to folk anyhow. And if you choose to watch from Space View or other points downtown, when public parking fills up, the local food pantry generally offers paid parking from the Wells Fargo next door.Īrrive early (2-3 hours is usually plenty), get cozy, and generally enjoy the night! Site UpdatesĮver since I inherited it after Wayward’s passing, the goal has been to clean it up, make it a more useful guide, and get it to a position where I can approach local businesses and negotiate with them about placing ads on the site. Most places in Titusville close around 9pm, so if you want a bite to eat that’s nicer than what you’d get from one of our few 24-hour convenience stores, you might wanna bring it with you. If you’re watching from the mainland parks, pack some snacks. Wherever you’re watching from, it wouldn’t hurt to bring some water, maybe a folding chair, and some bug spray. Whether you choose to watch downtown from Space View, or point south like Manzo, Rotary Riverfront, or Kennedy Point, you’ll have a good time. They’re further out, sure, but you’re still more than close enough for the sights and sound, as long as weather allows.

Barring that, the multiple public parks along US1 and the river in Brevard County are always kept open overnight for launch nights, and they continue to be a free and reliable place to enjoy a launch from.Feel The Heat is a great option if you’re up for it, it includes a 2-day ticket to the visitors center, a meal and souvenir, and you get to watch the launch from pretty much the closest place anyone in the public is allowed to be, at ~3 miles away from LC-39a. Being a crewed launch, the KSC Visitors Complex will be offering paid viewing via their Feel The Heat package ($250/person), and as of this writing (Feb 23rd) those are still available.Night launches can be a bit obnoxious to watch, but they provide some unparalleled views of their own.
In the past week, it has been delayed from its original launch date to February 27th at 1:45 AM local time. I’ve been getting emails since the beginning of January asking about the Crew-6 flight, given how late in the night it’s slated to depart. We’ll be averaging one launch a week from here on out if those numbers hold up, and that means at least one chance per week for folks to travel here to the Space Coast and see one for themselves! That’s not even considering the debut launch of Vulcan, the potential first flight of Dreamchaser, the long-awaited Psyche mission, and several more Falcon Heavies, all of which will no doubt draw folks to the river’s edge like nothing else! Crew-6 There were of course, other notable missions, like Astra’s ill-fated pair of launches from Cape Canaveral, the return of Falcon Heavy with USSF-67, the long-awaited second test flight of Boeing’s Starliner crew vehicle, and a geopolitical upheaval that stands to give us more launches this year than even last year’s record-setting count of 57. 2022 was quite the whirlwind year, with Artemis I taking the stage on Pad 39B several times throughout the year for fit checks, wet dress, and launch attempts aplenty before its final, glorious, night-into-day launch.
I always intend to make guideposts more frequently, but outside of posts for specific, notable launches, it seems to be quarterly at best.
