NASA IS SET TO LAUNCH THE SPACE SHUTTLE ON SUNDAY MARCH 15TH, 2009 AT 7:43 PM. THE FINAL NIGHT LAUNCH FROM KENNEDY SPACE CENTER IN CAPE CANAVERAL FLORIDA, LOCATED ON MERRITT ISLAND. I FIND IT AMAZING THAT SLEEPY LITTLE RIVERSIDE TOWNS OF COCOA, ROCKLEDGE & MERRITT ISLAND, HAVE BEEN TRANFORMED FROM THE CITRUS PRODUCING INDUSTRY TO TODAYS, TECHNOLOGY .
COCOA FLORIDA WAS FOUNDED ON THE BANKS OF THE INDIAN RIVER, AS A SHIPPING POINT FOR CITRUS AND SEAFOOD THAT WAS TRANSPORTED BY STEAMSHIPS, TO THE NORTHERN UNITED STATES. WITH CITRUS AND AGRICULTURE, STILL A MAJOR AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRY, IN COCOA, ROCKLEDGE AND MERRITT ISLAND, IT IS TRULY A TRANSFORMATION IN TIME, THAT SLEEPY LITTLE FLORIDA TOWNS, FOUNDED DURING THE BOOM ERA, AND STILL FEATURE HISTORIC HOMES AND HISTORICAL LANDMARKS, SET ALONG INDIAN RIVER DRIVE IN COCOA, CO-EXISTS WITH MODERN TECHNOLOGY OF NASA, PATRICK AIR FORCE BASE, AND SUPPORTING INDUSTRIES.
AFTER WORLD WAR II, AND THE LAUNCH OF SPUTNICK, FROM THE SOVIET UNION, THE UNITED STATES, NEEDED A RURAL AREA IN WHICH TO ADVANCE THE QUEST FOR SPACE EXLORATION. THEREFORE, CAPE CANAVERAL NOW KENNEDY SPACE CENTER EXISTS, WITH PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY’S, GOAL OF PUTTING A MAN ON THE MOON, THE MERCURY, GEMINI AND APOLLO PROGRAMS, ALL LED TO THE START OF SPACE EXPLORATION FOUND AT NASA TODAY.
WITH THE LAUNCH OF SPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERY ON MISSION (STS-119), AN ERA OF SMALL RIVERSIDE TOWNS, WHO HAVE SEEN THEIR POPULATION GROW, THROUGH THE SPACE INDUSTRY AND SUPPORTING TECHNOGY COMPANIES, WILL BE BRINGING THE PAST AND FUTURE TOGETHER. FOR THOSE OF US WATCHING FROM COCOA BEACH, OR MACFARLAND PARK, 2 MILES NORTH OF HISTORIC COCOA VILLAGE, FLORIDA. SCENIC INDIAN RIVER DRIVE IN COCOA , FLORIDA IS LINED WITH HISTORIC HOMES & HISTORIC COCOA VILLAGE IS CURRENTLY HOSTING OUR ANNUAL MARDI GRAS CELEBRATION, 
TO SEE THE GLOW OF THE ENGINES, IN THE NIGHT SKY WHILE STANDING ALONG HISTORIC BUILDINGS, BUILT BY ARCHITECTS FROM CORAL GABLES, AND DAVIS ISLANDS, AND THE HISTORIC HOMES THAT LINE INDIAN RIVER DRIVE, AND MACFARLAND DRIVE 2 MILES NORTH OF COCOA VILLAGE, WHICH WERE BUILT BY MARTIN L. HAMPTON, FAMOUS FOR RESIDENTIAL AND HISTORICAL LANDMARKS IN MIAMI, CORAL GABLES, DELRAY AND WEST PALM BEACH, THAT STILL EXIST TODAY. FROM THE DAYS OF BUILDING THESE CLASSIC HOMES AND BUILDINGS, TO SPACE SHUTTLES BEING LAUNCHED FROM MERRITT ISLAND, THE CHARM AND CHARACHTER OF THESE SMALL RIVERSIDE TOWNS, IS STILL EVIDENT. “GOD SPEED “TO THE ASTRONAUTS AND CREW OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE, MAY THEY HAVE A SAFE AND SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH TO THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION TO DELIVER SOLAR RAYS AMOUNGST THE CARGO.
