 Map by seagoingJLW Take a trip down the road and visit the Kennedy Space Center. The VAB is the largest building in the world. This map shows you exactly where it is. Leave a Comment

by Carnation At around 2.30pm local time the shuttle launched and the cameras were clicking away. A few minutes later the noise reached us with a boom making the ground shudder slightly under my feet. This was well worth waiting for and an unexpected treat. On this occassion the shuttle was going up to do repairs on a satellite. Leave a Comment

by Carnation Entry fees are $27.00 per adult. Expect to be searched and your bags and camera to be inspected by security staff upon entering the complex. Get there early to avoid disappointment of some of the special features showing. Bring lots of soft drinks, snacks and food with you as the food and drinks here are very expensive. Leave a Comment

by Carnation On Monday 8th April 2002 we went to the Kennedy Space Center. Little did we know what treat lay in store for us! We were at the right place and the right time to watch the launch of the Space Shuttle Atlantis (STS-110) Leave a Comment

by Carnation The extension building next to the Kurt H. Debus Conference Facility is where you can walk around and see how space exploration has advanced with full scale models of the capsules the astronauts landed back on earth into the ocean, early astronaut suits and even the original Mercury Mission Control Room which contains the actual Mercury Mission Control consoles from which the first eight manned missions were monitored.

by Carnation We took a look inside this shuttle Explorer which you will find inside the complex. Walking underneath it you really get the feel of the size. Inside I was amazed how little room the astronauts have to work in. For the most part, the shuttle looked more like a cargo bay. Leave a Comment

by Carnation Getting nearer the time of the launch we all gathered at the point where we could watch. Cameras at the ready we waited with baited breath. Leave a Comment

by Carnation Opposite is situated this memorial. A dedication to all astronauts who sacrificed their lives in the name of space exploration. Leave a Comment
