Throwback Thursday – Cape Canaveral Lighthouse – 1950
Lets go back 75 years and a view from the top of the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse.
I do not have much information about the photo below that I was able to acquire while working at the Kennedy Space Center. The following caption was included with the photo:
Cape view as it looked in 1950 from the lighthouse. Date: 01/01/1950.
Fast Forward 65 years to 2015 and a climb up the lighthouse and some more current views from the top.
And a couple views from the ground of the Lighthouse.
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".
