Your Orlando vacation is not complete without a trip to Kennedy Space
Center. Just 45 minutes from Orlando attractions is NASA’s launch headquarters –
the only place on Earth where you can tour launch areas, meet an Astronaut, see
giant rockets, train in spaceflight simulators, and even view a launch.
Plan on a full day to explore NASA’s launch headquarters, located on a huge
island wildlife refuge eight times the size of Manhattan. At Kennedy Space
Center Visitor Complex, you get the unique chance to tour – up close – NASA’s
launch and landing facilities. Experience interactive simulators, live shows and
jaw-dropping encounters with massive rockets. As well as have the opportunity to
meet a real member of NASA’s Astronaut Corps. It’s all what you can expect from
an inspiring day at Kennedy Space Center
John F. Kennedy Space Center is America's gateway to the universe and NASA's
launch headquarters. But it's also a remarkable place for visitors to explore
and make their own discoveries. Celebrating the past, present and future of
mankind's accomplishments, Kennedy Space Center is part of any great Florida
vacation
Launch Programs
Kennedy Space Center is America's busiest launch and landing facility. Here you
can witness the entire process, from the extensive preparation work, to an
earth-shaking launch, to a breathtaking landing. There are three orbiters in the
NASA Space Shuttle fleet - Discovery, Atlantis and Endeavour.
Countless communication and surveillance satellites have been launched from
Kennedy Space Center as well. These unmanned launches aboard Atlas, Delta and
Titan rockets are a monthly occurrence. In the summer of 2003, NASA again made a
giant leap for mankind by launching a rover to the planet Mars.
NASA Programs
Within every building and around every corner at Kennedy Space Center, there is
a story to tell about the days of early space exploration. The Mercury Program
saw the selection of America's first Astronauts, as well as the first manned
spacecraft to orbit Earth. During Project Gemini, Astronauts walked and worked
in space. And the legendary Apollo Program eventually put 12 Americans on the
moon. Currently, Space Shuttles are transporting pieces of the International
Space Station to be assembled 200 miles above earth
Legendary Figures
More than a few names have walked through the halls of NASA and into the pages
of history. Astronaut John Glenn, the first American to orbit the earth.
Astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first human to walk on the moon. And Jim Lovell,
the legendary captain of Astronaut Apollo 13. At the Astronaut Hall of Fame,
vistors can delve into the lives of these great explorers, and many others.
