Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39B, launch pad at Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39

Launch Complex 39B is a launch pad at Kennedy Space Center in Florida designed to support flights of large rockets. The facility features two launch platforms and supporting structures that have been modified for different mission types.

The launch complex was built in the 1960s and originally served the Apollo program. It was later adapted for the Space Shuttle program and now supports commercial and government space missions.

The facility is part of the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex and can be viewed from designated areas. Best viewing opportunities come from observation decks located near the visitor center.

The site has witnessed both triumphs and dramatic moments in space exploration history. This location has been the launchpad for some of the most iconic space missions ever attempted.
