JOIN THE JOURNEY

Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is the place where humankind first left Earth to explore the heavens. The mission for exploration is still alive and the future of space exploration launches here. More than a working launch facility, Kennedy Space Center is a symbol of American ingenuity and human curiosity. Come face-to-face with an astronaut who walked in space, stand next to the Space Shuttle Atlantis and go behind the gates on a bus tour of NASA to see launch pads and the Vehicle Assembly Building. Inspiration lives up there in the great beyond and it lives right here. Our ongoing space journey can be defined by significant eras. That’s why we’ve organized Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex into Mission Zones – grouped attractions and experiences reflecting specific periods of time and achievements. Your journey awaits!
