The John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) is the NASA space vehicle launch facility and Launch Control Center (spaceport) on Merritt Island, Brevard County, Florida, United States. The site is near Cape Canaveral, midway between Miami and Jacksonville, Florida. It is 34 miles (55 km) long and around 6 miles (10 km) wide, covering 219 square miles (567 km²). A total of 13,500 people work at the site as of early 2008. There is a visitor center and public tours; KSC is a major tourist destination for visitors to Florida. Because much of KSC is a restricted area and only nine percent of the land is developed, the site also serves as an important wildlife sanctuary; Mosquito Lagoon, Indian River, Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge dans Canaveral National Seahore are also features of this area. Operations are currently controlled from Lauch Complex 39, the location of the Vehicle Assembly Building. The two launch pads are 3 miles (5 km) to the east of the assembly building. The KSC Industrial Area, where many of the Center's support facilities and the administrative Headquarters Building are located, are found 5 miles (8 km) south. Kennedy Space Center's only lauch operations are at Launch Complex 39. All other launch operations take place at the adjacent Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS), which is operated by the US Air Force. 1, record 2, English, - Kennedy%20Space%20Center

Le John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) est un complexe de lancement spatial américain créé en 1959 et relevant de la NASA. Il est situé au cap Canaveral en Floride (28°27'00"N 80°32'00"W (stable.toolserver.org/geohack/geohack.php?pagename=Centre_spatial_Kennedy 7language=fr¶ms=28_27_00_N_80_32_00_W_scale:100000)). En 1964, la zone prend le nom de «Cap Kennedy» et retrouve son nom de «Cap Canaveral» en 1973. Les zones de préparation et les pas de tir du cap Canaveral sont répartis entre le KSC et un complexe militaire, la Cap Canaveral Air Force Station. Puisque les décollages des missions lunaires Appollo et des navettes spatiales ont toujours eu lieu à partir du KSC, l'expression «Cap Canaveral» désigne le KSC pour la plupart des gens. Elle possède la plus grande construction (tour) roulante au monde dans le complexe n° 37 (115 mètres de haut et 3 500 tonnes d'acier). La Floride est une vaste péninsule, bordée à l'Ouest par le golfe du Mexique et à l'Est par l'océan Atlantique; ce choix géographique limite les risques en cas de lancement raté. Les tirs se font toujours vers l'Est. 2, record 2, French, - Kennedy%20Space%20Center
