The Space Shuttle Atlantis exhibit was amazing! As a visitor from New Zealand who grew up watching the Space Shuttle program as a child from the very beginning, it was a once in a lifetime experience that made me quite emotional - and that was before we saw the tributes to the crews of Challenger and Columbia. Purchasing our tickets online through Headout was easy and hassle-free. Only downside for us was having to pay an additional $15 for parking when we arrived (it wasn't obvious when purchasing our tickets that parking would incur an extra charge).Frank

It was a dream-come-true moment in my 50s. Having always marveled at the technological advancements in the US, particularly in space, my background as a physics student fueled my wonder. I was filled with excitement as I witnessed these remarkable technologies unfolding before me.

Very beautiful historic center, still in operation, a must-see. You can see the launch site, the old rockets 🚀, the explanation of the conquest of the moon, lots of animations and video explanations. Very beautiful and well done.Analilia

I have in my bucket list to go to Kennedy Space Center. What I loved the most was that I had the opportunity to meet an astronaut, got his autograph, took a picture with him, and heard about his experience in space. Thank you!!
A galactic beginning to stellar moments at KSC
At Kennedy Space Center get ready to explore. The Atlantis exhibit stands prominent, inviting you close enough to sense its historical prowess. Did you know the Atlantis shuttle orbited Earth over 4,800 times? This is followed by a dive into the deep cosmos with an IMAX 3D moon-walking experience that defies gravity in its depiction.
Visit the Gantry at LC-39, now accessible at Kennedy Space Center
The newest attraction at Kennedy Space Center, the Gantry at LC-39, offers 360° views, interactive exhibits, and a thrilling simulated rocket test. Discover NASA’s initiatives to safeguard Earth and observe how space technology enhances natural ecosystems.

Don't miss out on the unique opportunity to touch a fragment of the moon, an emblem of our celestial achievements. For those who can't get enough in a day, there's always the option to upgrade for a comprehensive 2-day pass. You can choose to enhance your visit with our Explore Tour upgrade!
