COCOA BEACH, Fla. – Armed with some of the industry’s best equipment and innovative technology, News 6 is capturing SpaceX’s historic launch off Central Florida’s Space Coast from all angles.
As NASA prepares to launch American astronauts from U.S. soil for the first time since 2011, News 6 reporters and crews were placed throughout Brevard County to give viewers important updates and information leading up to the launch.
If the launch is successful, SpaceX would be the first private company to send humans into orbit and onto the International Space Station.
Meteorologist Candace Campos gave us a glimpse of what News 6 crews are using from Westgate Cocoa Beach Pier, which is approximately 16 miles from Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex
