This FAQ file answers Frequently Asked Questions about viewing a launch of both Space Shuttles and unmanned rockets from the Kennedy Space Center, and the Cape Canaveral Air Station (known collectively as The Canaveral Spaceport), as well as other web sites of interest. Hyperlinks are provided to points of interest at NASA, and the US Air Force which operate launch facilities. Subjects covered include the best places to park, and photo tips. Some slightly "off-subject" categories (such as how to visit the Kennedy Space Center, and how to become an Astronaut) are also covered, because people have asked.
