IF you have a fascination with space or space travel the this is a Must See. Be sure to take one of the guided tours, we did the Mission Control and it was Great. Seeing and walking through the shuttle mounted on the plane was excellent. Now I have to plan on visiting Cape Canaveral to complete my experience all the way around.

Visited first time 25 Years ago. What an incredible change. Have always liked space history. Was very close friends with John McBride ( STS 51, if I remember correctly) but was unable to attend the launch. We brought our daughter and grand daughter this time. They were here for Christmas from Portland, Maine. My grand daughter was totally fascinated with our entire visit to the Space Center. I have also been to Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville. Side note: Hosted a beer and chili party at McBrides house a few months before the Challenger disaster. Most of those crew members were in attendance.

It was an amazing experience. I have three kids; 6, 2, and 4 months. Each loved it in a different way. Even for my 6 year old, who’s autistic and gets overwhelmed with loud noises and crowds, he loved. Went on a Wednesday mid morning and stayed for about 3 hours. By then the crowds were getting a bit much for my littles. The staff was helpful, the exhibits were engaging and mostly interactive for young ones.

We spent about 4 hours at NASA and learnt so much about historic & upcoming space missions, saw amazing exhibitions and enjoyed great family time together. Overall it was a day well spent :)
