Cape Canaveral Lighthouse – Throwback Thursday

The Cape Canaveral Lighthouse early in the morning

Several mornings on the way to work driving through the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station I would take a detour out to the beach and Cape Canaveral Lighthouse to capture the sunrise as it rose over the Atlantic Ocean and illuminated the lighthouse.

These images were captured on November 4th, 2016.

About the Author and Photographer: Alden Pitard has over 40 years experience working in the Aerospace Industry at Cape Canaveral, The Kennedy Space Center (KSC) and Boeing locations throughout the country. He has supported the Space Shuttle Program, International Space Station, 787 Dreamliner and most recently the Artemis Program. During his time at "The Cape" he photographed a majority of the Launch Sites at KSC and Cape Canaveral. As the Space Shuttle program was coming to a close in 2011, the author decided to bike to all the Launch Complexes he could and capture the Space Center and Cape Canaveral as it was - thus "Biking through Space Ruins".
