I drove down from PA to the Cape in 1981 for the first Shuttle launch. On my way down route 1 from St Petersburg I was about 30 miles from the VAB when I first saw it. I though, "OH, there it is just a few miles down the road." but I thought I would never get there, it just kept getting bigger. And I mean really big. The thing is huge. 500 feet tall, 500 feet wide and 700 feet long.
