Experience the History and Evolution of the U.S. Space Program First-hand

Now, with a new era of events, attractions and interactive programs unfolding year-round, Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is a must-see for every Florida visitor.

From the earliest days of America’s storied space program, Kennedy Space Center has been there. Through the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and Space Shuttle programs, the NASA preparation and launch facility has captured the world’s attention and fed its imagination for the farthest reaches of outer space.

Kennedy Space Center’s remarkable collection of rockets, launch pads, NASA aerospace technology components and launch viewing opportunities offer an authenticity and behind-the-scenes access unlike any other Central Florida destination. Space Center offers visitors numerous activities and interactive programs that will leave them with a new-found understanding of the U.S. space program, as well as a lasting impression of the individual and team accomplishments that make it all possible.

Activities at Kennedy Space Center Include:

KSC Tours:

Short of becoming an astronaut, there’s no better way to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of Kennedy Space Center than on a NASA Tour. The tour is insightfully narrated and explores the history of the Apollo moon and space shuttle programs, from launch preparation to lift-off, including up-close views of launch pads, the Vehicle Assembly Building and the six-million-pound crawler-transporter.

Shuttle Launch Experience:

The Shuttle Launch Experience at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is an incredible journey of vertically launching into space and orbiting Earth aboard the space shuttle. Guest “crew members” strap in for this launch replication, which immerses visitors in the sights, sounds and feelings of a space shuttle launch, designed under the guidance of NASA and veteran space shuttle astronauts
