★★★★★Jessica BurtsTook a guided tour with Cub Scout troop. Fun interactive activities, moderate intense park rides included in tour (some not all), and tons to see.
★★★★★Shana NortonEverything was well laid out and there was plenty to explore. It’s a great place to learn about space while still having fun. Definitely worth a visit!
★★★★★Aspiring AmoebaYou can talk to some of the engineers who worked on Apollo or the later programs here. The building is part of the larger complex, and houses one of the test article Saturn Vs, along with a host of smaller exhibits for the Apollo Program, including a copy of Von Braun's office. There's some interactive exhibits as well.
★★★★★Ian PorterI only had a couple of hours before my flight, but the lady on the ticket desk said what was the best areas to visit and it was excellent. Even though I would have had all day there soaking through all the space history with more time.
★★★★★Merry StanfordThis was an exemplary experience for brainiacs and thrill sellers alike! Lots of terrific rides like the Moon Shot, G-Force, Hyper Ship, and Virtual Reality Moon Landing. We learned so much we didn't know about the development of the US space program and about space in general! Highly recommend for all ages 7- 97.
