U.S. Space & Rocket Center

cool a55

If you ever go here, ride the space shot!!! It is SOOO awesome! When I went here, I went on the G-Force thing twice, and then I went on the space shot 7 times, which was as many times as I could get in before they closed.

Its worth going, even if only once…especially in the summer or spring when the rides are functioning.

I was 14 years old, and the rockets were amazing. Space Camp is supposed to be amazing too, never went.

;) This was a great trip – the boys really enjoyed the museum and the various activities they had. Lots of real space stuff you can get up close and personal with – brought back memories of my elementary school days and the thrill of space exploration.

There is a rocket park outside that is really impressive too – they are restoring a Saturn V rocket (Apollo program) that is a National Historic Landmark (stages lying on side in background)

Actually remembered to mail off a postcard to the Robots too!
