Kennedy Space Center launches simulator

[blott]

Just opened - hot off the press!

Ever wanted to be an astronaut? Here's your chance to try it out!

It’s 3...2...1...launch as guests take their own vibrant journey of the Space Shuttle’s rush to Earth’s orbit. On Shuttle Launch Experience, Kennedy Space Center’s newest attraction, visitors strap in to the sights, sounds and sensations of launching into space...fully vertical!

Kennedy Space Center has always been a great place to visit - now it just got better...

Just spoke to my current guest to tell him about the next shuttle launch on Friday in case he did not know.

He told me that they were at the Space centre yesterday and went on this ride. He said that the noise and vibration you experience are 'out of this world', but said he would do it again.

Sounds fantastic Blott. I love Mission Space so this will be on my list of 'to do's' next time we are over. We have never been to Kennedy Space Center so look forward to this, although we did see the shuttle launch last September which was fantastic. If anyone is out there when the next launch takes place, around the 8th June, then do make the effort and go and see it. It's well worth it.
