Sunrise over Cape Canaveral – Cape Canaveral Lighthouse

The drive into work at the Kennedy Space Center took me through the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, now known as the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

As the sun was rising during the drive I would often detour out to the pristine beaches of The Cape and snap some photos of the sunrise. And when I would leave the beach the route to the office took me by the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse.

Enjoy these photos from January 18th, 2017.

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".
