Talking of catastrophes, it could also land at McDill Air Force Base or
Tampa International in the Tampa Bay area, or possibly Patrick Air Force 
Base just to the south of KSC.

But the last I heard, NASA was not considering either Orlando or Tampa
Internationals for their list of standard continengcy landing sites because
they decided that if the shuttle could make it to Florida it could make it
to KSC.  Doesn't make sense to me either.
