Kennedy Space Center Visitor Center Evacuated Yesterday?
Some time before the Atlas V launch yesterday, KSC's visitor center was apparently evacuated due to a "water main break." I wasn't there myself, I was setting up my scope for tracking the launch elsewhere, but I had two different people mention it to me before the launch. The scope tends to draw a large crowd of onlookers. One said he had come from the visitor center where he had planned to watch the launch, but said they evacuated everyone. Another showed up later and claimed he heard alarms going off and they ushered everyone out to the parking lot. In his words, he "hoped it was only a water main issue."

Just seems very strange to me that they would shut the entire thing down and potentially have to refund any money for special tickets to take the bus to see the launch, all over a water main issue at the main center. Any GLP'ers out there yesterday? Today their website mentions a water main issue but says most of the services are available today.

This evacuation was caused by the requirement of the facility to have an operational fire suppression system (according to a representative with the tourist destination).

For their part, ULA was taking no chances and went from an automated redline monitoring system to a manual one for this launch.

Terror threats are happening and they are not telling the pepole bc then we will all realize the truth.....Muslims cannot live in our countries. These are NOT their countries and they need to GTFO.

feds don't want mass hysteria or the justified backlash.

Do not buy from muslims, do not hire muslims, starve them out of this country bc if our govt won't do it MO RIKI TIK LIKE, WE WILL.

spock
Makes sense, though I'm still a bit surprised that they couldn't shut down the buildings in the main center and just bus guests out to the Saturn V center to watch the launch outside.

Titusville was one of "targeted" areas when Daesh released their US target list. Though that list was supposedly based on addresses of us military personnel and contractors.

Close enough for a reminder IMHO.

Maybe Buzz was wasted and flushed a beer bottle wrapped in mylar?

Poor people wanting to view a launch and run into plumbing issues, it's been cold in Florida, maybe they were running 1/2 inch grey poly pipe that has brought so many plumbing issues to Florida.

You're a moran. I was there, I saw this rocket launch myself. Yes, it can remain stable just fine. ISS is also real, and I've also seen it up close through my own telescope.

Let me guess, you also thought that the Space Shuttle "only" went 20 MPH after liftoff "because it didn't look to be traveling that fast on tv" ?

Believe it or not, there was a moron back in the 80's that peddled that exact idea. He was serious too. I think. I hope no body was actually that stupid.
