Hey guys, it struck me today that I will get a once of a lifetime chance this fall. The last space shuttle launch is currently scheduled for the 16th of September at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. I’m thinking of getting together whatever friends I can to road trip down to FLA to be there in remembrance. I thought it might be the sort of idea that other GWCers might be interested in, so I figured that I’d toss it out here. To be close on the base and actually see it as close as they allow you have to buy a ticket, which can run from somwhere between 40 and 60 dollars depending where for adults. Tickets go on sale somewhere between 4-6 weeks before launch.
So if anyone’s interested in meeting up for the trip, or in meeting up in Florida, post a message here. It’s kind of an idea right now, with no hard logistics (which is further complicated since weather can screw up the flight plans), but I wanted to open it up to you guys here.
