Space Center Houston

Space Center Houston is a leading science and space exploration learning center. It is a must-see attraction for anybody interested in space, space travel, or simply science fiction novels or movies.

The space shuttle replica independence, as well as the massive shuttle carrier it's perched on, may be explored at the visitor center. You may also take a tour of a replica of America's first space station, Skylab. Center for Space Center Houston is also the site of the Johnson Space Center, where astronauts prepare for upcoming space flights and where Houston's famed mission control is located. Tram excursions will take you through the whole facility, including the Johnson Space Center and Rocket Park, where you can see antique rockets that were used during NASA missions in the 1960s and 1970s. The Level 9 Trip, a 4.5-hour VIP tour that takes you behind the scenes at Johnson Space Center to visit areas that are otherwise off-limits, is for true space fans.
