Why Central Florida is Amazing

THEMIS, originally uploaded by ferrante.

It’s days like today that make you realize we’re truely “centrally located.”

30 minute car ride and we were at Cocoa Beach at Jetty Park, the closest you can get to NASA without being on base. This sunset launch was truely spectacular. The payload of this fully loaded Delta II is THEMIS, a satellite with 5 probes which will determine the origins of the Northern Lights.

For future reference, you can always find NASA’s launch schedule here.
