Hi, when we were in Florida in May we noticed that this ride was due to open in June. I just wondered if anybody has been on it and what is it like?

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

OPEN NOW!

The journey begins as passengers enter the Shuttle Launch Simulation Facility, a looming six-story structure architecturally consistent with Space Shuttle facilities at Kennedy Space Center. As crew members ascend along the gantry, veteran shuttle astronauts share testimonials, setting the stage for the experience to come.



Entering the heart of Space Shuttle operations for the pre-launch briefing, crew members are guided by veteran Space Shuttle Commander Charlie Bolden as he takes them step-by-step through the launch sequence. Brilliant video screens spring to life on shuttle-like robotic arms. Anxious moments arise as dramatic atmospheric, sound and lighting effects dramatize the moments before launch.

done this ride last month, its really good but if you suffer with motion sickness i would not recommend it. at one point i even had to look down to the floor because i thought i was going to be sick. really good like i said and worth a go.
