Kennedy Space Center

  • Atlantis Base

    The solid state rockets and liquid fuel tank for the Atlantis Space shuttle, The picture doesn't do any justice to just how massive this is.

  • Saturn 5 Rocket Base

    The business end of a decomissioned Saturn 5. Walking the length of this rocket takes minutes! 20 tons of fuel per minute would flow through here.

  • Crawler

    One of NASA's two land crawlers, currently being outfitted for SpaceX missions.

  • Space Shuttle Atlantis

    The retired Space Shuttle Atlantis. 'Murica!

  • Vehicle Assembly Plant

    This building is where every NASA space vehicle is assembled. Again, the picture does no justice to the height of this building.

Last November, I had the opportunity to visit the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, while visiting relatives living in the area.
