I’ve lived on Merritt Island for about 10 years now. It’s where
Kennedy Space Center is, and where NASA, as well as the Air Force,
launches rockets and the Space Shuttles. The Space Shuttle Program has
retired, but it’s a huge part of my childhood and my life. Growing
up watching all of the launches and having a Dad as a pilot, I fell in
love with space and flying. I hope to become a pilot and then pursue a
career as an astronaut. And, at the same time I’ve fallen in love
with living on the island. It has many downfalls, yes….but, it being
my new home, it grew on me. Especially because the launches gave me a
thrill.This blog is dedicated to my home, Merritt Island, and the
little things about it that I love, as well as to space exploration,
NASA, Kennedy Space Center, and flying. It’s also dedicated to all
lost astronauts and pilots.~Challenger-Colombia~My more personal and
random blog, if you’re curious, is circlinginmyhead.tumblr.comAll
pictures are not mine, unless I state otherwise.
