We will meet at the Sands Space History Center at Port Canaveral at 9AM and drive in from there together with our guides. We will get to see the historic Cape Canaveral Lighthouse, the nearby hanger, and the museum at Launch Complex 26 where some of Americas first spaceflights took place. We will be driving through an active Space Force Station with almost weekly launches, so be sure to look out for SpaceX, Blue Origin, and all of the other launch providers as we're driving through you never know what you'll drive by.
