My grandfather worked there on the generator repair crew. Had access to pretty much anywhere on the cape. One of my uncle's worked at the NASA press room. My step father was on the Shuttle recovery team and also the launch prep team. (helped suit up the astronauts on the prep team, and was later on the recovery team for remote landings)
My aunt worked for various contractors but most recently space x, but she just retired. Needless to say I saw a lot of the early shuttle launches when I was a kid on the cape. Like everyone up to something like STS 22 or somewhere around there.
I was born in Melbourne, so I grew up on the space coast. I actually watched the Challenger blow up from the window of my history class.
