Kennedy Space Center.

Here is the main building Vehicle Assembly Building where they assemble the shuttle at the Kennedy Space Center, the American Flag on here is the biggest flag painted on any building. It is 209 x 110 feet wide.



Here I am next to the Explorer. They let you go inside and look inside.




Ross and I are in Titusville, FL where we are planning on watching the shuttle launch which will take place on February 24, 2011

Here is Ross at the Kennedy Space Center in the Rocket Garden. All these rockets are real and of the real size. They just never shot them off.

This is the astronaut that greets you at the entrance of the Kennedy Space Center.


Here is Ross again.


The capsule I am not sure if it is one of the Apollos.

Here is the large rocket boosters. You cannot even imagine how big these are.



This was a ride where they do a simulation shuttle launch.









One of the alligaters in the vicinity of the Space Kennedy.













Northrop T-38 Talon supersonic jet. The flight crew of Nasa space mission fly this plane from Houston to Kennedy Space Center a few days before their mission. They also fly this plane to keep their flying skills up to day.




Here I am, Miss Eva astronaut.




Here is Ross my partner in crime!




We took a bus tour to the actual launch pad 39 and you can see the orange tip is the fuel tank.




Here is Ross and the launch pad in the back ground.




Here I am in front of the launch pad. It was really windy up there.




Space Shuttle Main Engine, this space shuttle main engine, flew on three different orbiters, over a period of over eight years. It was retired after completing over 15 different space flights.




Space Shuttle main engine, look how big it is in relation to the size of Ross.




The rocket boosters on the Saturn.




Here is the Lunar Lander.




One of the phases from the Saturn rockets.
