An American eagle family has taken up residence at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center during nesting season. This year, the pair is raising a lone baby eagle in the nest, located in a tree near Kennedy Parkway, about two miles from the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at the Florida spaceport. Kennedy currently is home to approximately 20 nesting pairs of bald eagles.
