Kennedy Space Center

Today, I went on a full-day tour of Kennedy Space Center, which is about an hour outside of Orlando.

The huge NASA complex showcases decades of space exploration history, including an actual space shuttle on display. Not to mention many rockets and vehicles used for actual missions in space.

They had a lot of interesting exhibits, movies, and interactive experiences that provided a unique window into space exploration.

There was also some information about future missions - including a plan for man to return to the moon in 2025.

Of course, it was also fascinating to be close to the primary launch center for human spaceflight, including the Danish astronaut that recently went back to the International Space Station.
