Flight Path

If you are headed to Orlando, be sure to visit Kennedy Space Center with kids! The Kennedy Space Center attractions will take the kids back in time and teach them about the beginnings of rocket launches and space exploration

HERO AND LEGENDS

At the Heroes and Legends exhibit, you get to see the first pioneers of NASA’s space programs that are heroes to us all. You'll also get to see the heroes behind the scenes of the Apollo missions. The U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame is here, and you get to see the early technology that helped Americans defy gravity in space.

RACE TO THE MOON

There’s a lot to see here, and you’ll learn all about the space race to the moon that the U.S. finally won on July 20, 1969. This was when Buzz  Aldrin and Neil Armstrong were the first two men to walk on the moon. You don’t want to miss the Saturn V rocket, the largest rocket ship ever flown in space. Plus, there are many other great exhibits.

NASA NOW AND NEXT

At this attraction, you’ll take a deep dive into our current mission to the International Space Station (ISS) and the future mission set to venture into deep space.  See what the astronauts today will use for their future deep space missions and take a trip to the red planet in the Journey to Mars: Explorers Wanted.
