  • In today's video we head to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex to get an up close view of the Space X Falcon 9 rocket launch carrying the Dragon Capsule to the International Space Station. We arrived just before opening and caught a bus at the to the Saturn V building where they had grand stands set up at the Banana Creek Viewing area. The launch was perfect with no delays or issues! About 7 mins after the launch we started to see the first stage return back to earth followed by 2 sonic booms as the rocket landed back at Kennedy Space Center. After the launch we explored more of the visitor complex and even got to see the Atlantis exhibit, which is truly magnificent. A big thank you to Delaware North for providing us with tickets to see the rocket launch. If you would like to visit Kennedy Space Center be sure to check the website to see when the next launch is! www.kennedyspa... Tune in tomorrow for a new video.

    I travelled all the way from Germany to KSC to fulfill a childhood dream.. Goosebumps galore as soon as Atlantis was revealed and we entered the exhibition room.. Also seeing Saturn V was mind-blowing :D

    Thank you , thank you , thank you so much. I love your Space Center videos and that rocket launch was so exciting to watch. So many of us will never have the opportunity to see something like that in person and you do these vlogs so well it is almost like being there.

    Glad you were able to see the launch. RUclipsr, Kristen Williams (who is an engineer) from "Live Each Day" won a chance to be behind the scenes before the launch. She vlogged there a couple times this past week.

      Went last year and it blew my mind..... what I would do to be 4 again and be inspired by this place, you will see what I mean when you are there but you and your son will love it. I honestly felt humbled when I left with all that has been achieved at kennedy.

    TY Tim. Once again you have made me miss home and family. My dad was in the USAF and worked with NASA from Gemini to Apollo. KSC was our favorite day trip. He never ran out of behind the seen facts about the the displays, rockets and other lunar mods. to fact me on that most people wouldn't even think of. Thank You!

    This gave me chills 😍 Always wanted to see a rocket launch, I’m sure one happened when I was in Florida one time, but didn’t get to experience it. One was definitely meant to happen another time I was over there, but it got delayed until after I’d gone home. I think it’s incredible that we have the ability to explore the unknown 🖖

    Tim you did a great job with keeping the rocket in view the entire time.. And what you said about Atlantis and how it is displayed is so true.. That movie and the reveal was one of the best things I had ever seen in my Life.. You ought to go over to the road behind the Disney Cruise Terminal for one of the landings.. You are much closer to the landing zone and you can truly feel that Sonic Boom!! And please tell me you are going to try and get a Media Pass for the Falcon Heavy Launch..

      paul08211973 when I first saw the reveal it made me cry. And it made me cry again just watching the video. So much effort to better understand our universe and it deserves to be presented so well.

    We are very lucky to catch the Space Shuttle Atlantis STS-132 launch from Space View Park in Titusville during our trip in May 2010 ... it was beyond amazing to see it in person, and hear and feel the boom. Then in 2012 we were fortunate enough to get in on the launch pad tour of pad 39A before they turned it over to SpaceX.

My husband and I have been avid fans of you guys for well over a year&a half now, we love your content & the exploring you do. Its nice to see a healthy alligator once in a while too, we're always out &about around lakes and ponds but never spot any. ~Good vibes, from Jacksonville Fl.
