About 3 miles from Pad 39A.
Have you ever seen a Saturn V rocket close up?
Amazing what engineers and scientists can come up with.
Several stories high and nothing but fuel with a little tiny capsule on top.
Mercury rockets by comparison look like little toys.

Been there done that. I have also seen the Russian stuff. Also have seen some of the Chinese stuff as well. Also have seen American astronauts doing their stuff in the pool in Houston. I went to 25th anniversary of the space camp at the Kansas Comosphere I was the only oldest classment to make it not in age but when I went. My brother was the the second for that weekend.
