Cape Canaveral live camera – Space Coast live: Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral launch pads
Live now YouTube live Launch pad · What camera types mean
What you are looking at
Space Coast Live is a round-the-clock stream from NASASpaceflight (NSF), an independent spaceflight news outlet that is not part of NASA. Its cameras around Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral, Florida, watch the launch pads used by NASA and SpaceX, including work on the new Starship pad at Launch Complex 39A. A second camera called Fleetcam, at Rusty's Seafood and Oyster Bar in Port Canaveral, watches the recovery ships coming and going.
On a quiet day you will see pads, towers and the flat Florida coast under changing skies. On launch days the view can switch to a rocket on the pad, the plume climbing over the Atlantic and, for some Falcon 9 missions, the booster landing back at the Cape with a sonic boom. Days later, Fleetcam may catch a droneship carrying a booster back into port. Night launches light up the sky.
The feed plays as live video on YouTube and has no commentary, only the sound and pictures. A practical tip: check a launch schedule before you watch, because Florida launch windows can be short and are often moved by weather.
