CAPE CANAVERAL

Is a cape situated in Brevard County, Florida, United States, near the center of the state's Atlantic coast. It’s a part of a region known as Space Coast, and is the localization of the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. They started to use this region in 1950  to launch missiles or rockets to the space. This was the perfect region because they launched the missiles to the east and the missiles landed in the sea without any risk to the population.

Nowadays It’s a very complex place. It has lots of launchers for launch rockets or satellites; and also has lots of laboratories and places to prove new invents for the NASA. And also it’s controlled by the USAF (United States Air Force) to train military maneuvers. This great area is called Kennedy Space Center
