    Parking is a little expensive, the humidity and heat in Florida is no joke and the crowds rival the…read moreones you'll see at any Disney theme park. Even with that being said, it's still very much worth going at least once in your lifetime. This is where history is made. SpaceX and Amazon have property here as well. This is where Sterling satellites are launched from. This is where the space shuttle takes off from and yes there are viewing platforms where you can obtain tickets to view a rocket launch. The most part the majority of everything you view and all of the tours take place inside very air conditioned buildings and adequately air conditioned tour buses. It is limited where you are allowed to get out and just wander for obvious reasons. This is a working control center. It was definitely worth the $71 for entry. Pro tip, if you wish to take the behind the scenes tour you need to do this and schedule it at least 3 weeks I had to time of your visit. I purchased my ticket for it 2 months out. I get there early they own at 09:00 and I was able to park up front, therefore not losing my vehicle iykyk lol even with that being said, the parking is not nearly as chaotic as anything that is Mickey Mouse land related. A lot of experiences for families and children. History is well documented here.

    I had no idea what to expect but this place really blew me away. NASA did it's a big one with this!…read moreWe were there from 12pm to closing at 5PM & we still did not get to see and do everything!! This place is a separated into multiple buildings (which I really like for crowd control) and has so many cool and unique ways of experiencing and learning about space and the NASA program. There's even a bus tour that you can take to another area that has more to see. We never even got to this. It seems there is some extra stuff you can pay for, like an astronaut-like experience, which I definitely would like to do on the next trip here. Outside of this, there are exhibits, shows, immersive experiences, various places to eat (including a Starbucks), and much more! We also got to see a rocket launch, which is something to scratch off the bucket list! They had a host who helped to guide you on where to look, and also prepared you with the Countdown. He was out there way before the shuttle actually took off, but only made announcements here and there. I think this viewing could be really enhanced if they were to add music as people are waiting for the launch, or even an audio that plays on a loop of fun facts and related things. The last thing we did before everything closed, was an IMAX film at their IMAX theater. We took note of what time it was starting and made sure to get there in time for this film. The issue is that it was SO so incredibly boring, which I did not expect.. after 30 minutes while it was still going, we decided to leave. I do hope that they update this to show more guest friendly films that capture audiences attention. I would definitely return and plan to whenever I am in the area again!
