SpaceX Rocket Launch Complex, Surf Beach & Sand Dune 10 Mile Hike & Explore

I am fascinated and captivated by life within the context of the universe, and therefore also with our collective effort in space exploration - a beginning step of life going beyond the confines of Home Planet Earth and its atmosphere.

SpaceX Rocket Launch Complex is within Vandenberg Space Force Base, and roughly 3.5 miles south of the Surf Beach Train Station. I plan to hike & explore the beach at low tide, hike and explore the pristine and scenic sand dunes on the way to check out SpaceX.

Tentatively this hike is scheduled for Saturday Jan 17 and may be adjusted to fit the schedule of SpaceX Launch and low tide prediction when Surf Beach is more accessible.
