Throwback Thursday – Cape Canaveral Lighthouse in 1994 and 2014
On my drive to work as the sun was rising over the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, I would occasionally take a right out on Lighthouse Road and snap some photos of the beach and then the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse.
The photo below is of the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse in 1994. Photo is courtesy of NASA.
Description: Majestic overall view of the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse. Photo also shows the roofless storage shed.
And fast forward twenty years later in 2014 and enjoy the photos of the pristine beaches of Cape Canaveral out on the Air Force Station and the Cape Canaveral 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".
