STS-134 ... any chance for VIP-Access via ATC?

Hi Folks,

i am a German ATCO with a childhood-dream and i am desperately seeking some help to make it come true (although it´s not looking that good so far). So, maybe someone in the big Pilots- and ATC-World can be of some assistance?

So here is the task:

i would like to see the last Shuttle-Launch (STS-134) in February 2010 from a reasonable position. I do not have to explain to You that its already hard to get the days off in a chronically understaffed unit nor will it be easy to get a flight to KMCO. But the hardest thing of all will be to just get into KSC.

Is there anybody out there that can help me? Any way to get in via the "ATC-Way"? Any connections to NASA? Anybody who knows anyone that could know someone?

Would be really great! Will do anything in return (OK, almost anything...)

Thanks

DE1
