Returned back to where I did my flight training in 2011...and that also means I'm able to watch rocket launches many times. Since I was a children, I used to read encyclopedias and I always focused on the section of space travel and astronomy. I simply love spaceships.
When I did my flight training, I was able to see the last two Space Shuttle launches ever (the last one was STS-134 I believe...) and 5 years later, I'm here watching more spacecraft launches :)
Hope I get some good weather for upcoming launches...There is one scheduled at sunset!!!
Launch Pad 39A in Kennedy Space Center, Florida was used to launch many NASA missions including the Saturn V rocket from Apollo and the Space Shuttle. The launch tower for the Shuttle still stands after the retirement of the program. Launch Pad 39B's tower was completely deconstructed in Sep 2011 in anticipation for future vehicles and missions.

After launching from the ramp this radio controlled car flew about 10-15 feet into the air and touched down about 30-40 feet from the ramp. It landed on all its wheels and he proceeded to steer it back downfield so he could repeat the process. See the description of Sergio, two photos before this one.
I liked the shadow cast on the ground at 4 o'clock from the ramp. These were shot at sunset.
This 22.5-foot wake boat welcomes as many as 13 with versatile seating, comfort and wake sport performance. The Launch 22V interior brings resilient multi-textured Syntec NANO Block vinyls together with the durability of exclusive Gore Tenara thread. Triple density foam construction makes the interior as cushy as it is beautiful. Supra has made the high-traffic path from the lounge to the swim step worry-free with a fiberglass seat step and transom walkacross. The wakes are multi-discipline and pro caliber. Control your curl and your ramps with cockpit switching or a Touch of the VISION. As fun to drive as it is to ride, the 22V slices through rough water with flat precise turns. High and slow speed maneuvers are almost as impressive as you will look pulling them off. Playpen or walk-through bow, the Launch and Sunsport 22V will fit your wake boating lifestyle.

View from the gantry at Launch Complex 39 at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
What we're seeing is launch pad 39A, where space shuttle Atlantis was launched two days earlier. This was the launch pad used by all the manned Apollo-Saturn V launches, except for Apollo 10. After the launching of Skylab in 1973, 39A was rebuilt for the Space Shuttle program.
The first 24 space shuttle flights were launched from pad 39A. Then 39B took over, until it was deactivated in January 2007. All space shuttles since then (and those remaining before the space shuttle program is retired) have been launched from pad 39A.
The future of pad 39A is that it will be the primary launch pad for the Ares V rocket from 2018 and so it will continue the tradition from the Apollo days and be the pad where future astronauts, destined for the moon, will wave their goodbyes.
Edited NASA image of the launch of the Demo-2 mission.
Original caption: A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying the company's Crew Dragon spacecraft is launched from Launch Complex 39A on NASA’s SpaceX Demo-2 mission to the International Space Station with NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley onboard, Saturday, May 30, 2020, at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Demo-2 mission is the first launch with astronauts of the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft and Falcon 9 rocket to the International Space Station as part of the agency’s Commercial Crew Program. The test flight serves as an end-to-end demonstration of SpaceX’s crew transportation system. Behnken and Hurley launched at 3:22 p.m. EDT on Saturday, May 30, from Launch Complex 39A at the Kennedy Space Center. A new era of human spaceflight is set to begin as American astronauts once again launch on an American rocket from American soil to low-Earth orbit for the first time since the conclusion of the Space Shuttle Program in 2011.
