Rocket/space themed vacation

May 13, 2004 3 Replies

I'm going to be on vacation in northern Georgia, July 17th through the 22nd. Is there any recommended sites while I'm there? Is Huntsville worth the trip? Also how about going to KSC? Any place else?



Thanks for any input!!

KSC is interesting, but be advised - The tour takes you next to the shuttle runway, not on it, you don't get all that close to the launch pad and you don't get into the VAB. Mostly what you get is "the history of". Kind of sad to see all the Apollo stuff rusting away.

Indeed! I will never forget our trip many years ago when they were testing the Shuttle main engines.

When we are traveling through the North part of the state we will stop in. Always worthwhile, especially the IMAX theatre. And the rocket park! It's time to go back...one of our coffee mugs is cracked. :-)
