This day at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex includes the
KSC Tour of NASAs Launch Headquarters, both IMAX films, all
shows and exhibits and a visit to the Astronaut Hall of Fame. The tour includes stops at the four story
LC-39 observation gantry where guests get a birds eye view of the space shuttle launch pads and parts of the worlds busiest space launch facility. The
second tour stop is the acclaimed Apollo/Saturn V Center, where guests walk beneath a massive Saturn V rocket, relive Neil Armstrongs first steps on the moon and experience the thunderous rumble of a Saturn V moon rocket lift off. Later, guests can take a
trip to the International Space Station Center where theyll see real parts of the space station being readied for Launch!
Their day continues with
IMAX movie screenings of the new Magnificent Desolation where they explore the moon in full 3-D, and
Space Station 3-D, which takes them on a
virtual trip to the International Space Station in a fully immersive big-screen environment. Guests also enjoy the many other shows and exhibits at the Visitor Complex including a chance to meet a real astronaut at the Astronaut Encounter Show and enjoy the zany live-action show Mad Mission to Mars 2025.
The day is topped off with a visit to the Astronaut Hall of Fame, located at the entrance to Kennedy Space Center and a short 5-minute drive from the Visitor Complex. This attraction features the worlds largest collection of personal astronaut mementos, plus historic spacecraft, one-of-a-kind space legacies and hands on activities.
Guests can sit in a mission control console, take a virtual moonwalk, feel the pull of 4 Gs in the G-Force Simulator and land the Space Shuttle.
Opened in May of 2007 and included with Admission is the new Shuttle Launch Experience. Shuttle Launch Experience replicates the sights, sounds and feelings of a shuttle launch, an incredible journey of launching into space and orbiting Earth aboard a Space Shuttle. Guest crewmembers strap in and go vertical for launch in a one-of-a-kind motion-based simulator, the only realistic simulation of a launch ever created. The five-minute experience sequence culminates with a breath-taking view of Earth from space.
This ticket allows your guests to do everything in one day or return for a second day within a seven-day period.
