I know you want to see it up close, but just so you know, most rocket launches are visible from hundreds of miles away. As long as you are in peninsular Florida, you can probably see it when it goes up. I've personally never gotten to see a launch up close, but I've still seen plenty of them from across the state, and while it's probably not AS cool, it's still pretty cool.

And 10,000 years is just for what we call civilizations, which is a tiny fraction of the time humans have actually existed. Apparently, there was a cave that was continuously inhabited by humans for 78,000 years! That's a scary amount of time to think about. History and pre history have nothing on our ancient history. And to think, all that time was observed in little chunks by so many people.
