The Space Coast is located in Brevard County.... Just east of Orlando, Florida.  According to Wikipedia, the Space Coast is a region in the U.S. state of Florida around the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. It is one of several "themed" coasts around Florida. All of NASA-launched crewed spaceflights have departed from either KSC or Cape Canaveral.  This whole area is surrounded by amazing organizations, colleges, high tech companies, government contractors, and government facilities, including:
