Launch Rats hoping to view tomorrow’s launch from Playalinda will want to note the following (as per traffic advisory from Kennedy Space Center):
– The A. Max Brewer Causeway bridge on S.R. 406 in Titusville (north bridge) east to Playalinda Beach Road, Canaveral National Seashore will be restricted to all motor vehicle traffic. The Playalinda Beach park will be open until capacity is reached or 7:30 a.m., whichever comes first. If you are planning on visiting Playalinda Beach, please inform the uniformed officers at the checkpoint.
– State Road 3 North at US1 in Volusia County, south to Playalinda Beach will be open to all motor vehicle traffic until capacity is reached, or at 7:30 a.m., whichever comes first.
Also note that launch viewing from Kennedy Space Center, both LC-39 Gantry and Apollo/Saturn V Center, is SOLD OUT. Viewing from the main visitor center complex is not recommended as the launch is not visible until the rocket clears the treeline. We recommend Playalinda Beach, SR-401 and the viewing location at SR-528/A1A as alternatives. US-1 in Titusville remains a good backup locaation for launch viewing.
Good luck! May your launch viewing journey be nominal.
