A group of photographers who had set up along the ITL Causeway shoreline for the launch of AEHF-5 were surprised to find as the light of dawn crept into the eastern sky that a large alligator was just a few feet away watching them intently as my fuzzy low-light photo shows. That is Space Launch Complex-37 on the horizon, which is used to launch the Delta family of rockets at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Happily for all involved, everyone went their separate ways without incident.
