United States Government National Aeronautics and Space

They don't give you that much useful information or interesting items although the presentations are two long. Not so much fun. Whereas you pay $5 for parking and $20 per person. Just go in the case you have nothing else to visit or do in Houston.

The first time I went to Space Center, I was very excited to see all of the "real" NASA stuff. The trolly ride to Mission Control is worth the price by itself the first visit. To justify the high cost of admission, and to get people to return, they have these poorly executed "themes" like "Gross!" etc. Every subsequent time I've been to Space Center, it has been with visiting friends and family. I go because they want to see Mission control. Were it up to me comletely, I would not be a repeat customer

Without a doubt the best part of Space Center is the tram tour of mission control. you get to sit in the VIP room and look through the glass where all the history was made. Just being that close to where the phrases "houston we have a problem" and "One small step..." were uttered was worth the full price of admission. There is plenty for kids. The gift shop and IMAX theatres(with artifact exhibits) were also two must sees. BUT PLEASE HEED THIS WARNING. DO NOT EAT IN CAFETERIA!!!!!!!!!!
