Life on the Road

If it’s not on your life’s “to do list,” watching a space shuttle launch really should be. Few man-made experiences are as awe-inspiring as standing on the edge of the water and watching a light so bright, the sun looks momentarily dim. Even better: when the bright light happens in the dead of night, illuminating the sky and sending a flare of glory across the seas.

Best free place to watch the shuttle launch in Titusville, Florida: The second story blood donation center on Highway 1: 3880 S. Washington Avenue Suite 210-212, (321) 632-2052. It’s a clear view across to Kennedy Space Center, and your view will not be blocked by buildings or people. Give blood and get the best show on Earth at the same time!
