Oh, and, of course,
+n for just go. KSC is fantastic. Even if you’re not into spacey things it’s hard not to be fascinated. I’m an Apollo geek, the place was a wet dream for me. You walk around the rocket garden marvelling at the sheer size of the things, they’ve a Saturn 1B that’s so big they had to lie it down. And then you go into the Apollo exhibition and it’s literally jaw-dropping.
The tour is well worth doing. The extended tour takes you right up to the launch pads and into the VAB for a mooch around (unless it’s changed since I was there last).
They didn’t have the Shuttle exhibition when I was there, though one time we did the ATX “astronaut experience” and got to crawl around inside a mock-up, which was interesting but didn’t really live up to my expectations if I’m honest.
I’ve also done the “lunch with an astronaut” thing, which didn’t appeal to me at all but turned out to be absolutely fascinating. The guest speaker was the appropriately named Story Musgrave, he was brilliant.
Universal’s cool, you should go there too.
