A late-night rocket launch is scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 29, and spectators in Volusia County can catch the spectacle above the skies. Weather permitting, the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will lift off Pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center with two next-generation Airbus-built satellites.
Viewers can witness the launch from various locations along the Florida coast, including New Smyrna Beach, Port Orange, and Oak Hill. Some recommended spots include:
* South New Smyrna Beach (Canaveral National Seashore)
* Mary McLeod Bethune Beach Park in New Smyrna Beach
* Apollo Beach at Canaveral National Seashore (south of New Smyrna Beach)
* Riverfront areas in Oak Hill, such as Sunrise Park and Jimmie Vann Sunrise Park
A live blog with updates and a countdown clock will be available on floridatoday.com/space starting 90 minutes before liftoff.
