Inside this huge center designed to educate all ages, we stayed from 10 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. My brain is stuffed with facts and information about the space program.
Outside in Rocket Park were a few of these. Inside a long building to protect it from the weather was the huge rocket Saturn.
Saturn. Lots of guests from other countries were visiting.
Wonderful exhibits. That's earth in the distance.
An aluminum suitcase which brought back soil from the moon. I got to touch a moon rock!
An early space module where astronauts floated, lived and did scientific experiments. I learned that humans have been in space continuously since 2000, and that the International Space Station, housing six at a time and accepting guests intermittently, is an amazing place that would be fun to visit.
How does a moon rock feel different from an earth rock?
ReplyDeleteI like your shuttle pose. :)
There's also a moon rock you can touch at the Smithsonian in D.C. It's all worn where thousands of people have touched it! Sounds fun, spending all day at a museum & learning about space! Cool!
ReplyDeleteWell then, I guess it runs in the family that we all enjoy touching moon rocks! Haha. What an amazing museum.
