Goofy brother on the tram ride

Control Center..this is where they hear Houston we have a problem.

i do not remember what the far right one shows i think international space center.

this is the track of the international space station in real time. it was pretty neat....i thought they would just show you a staged room but it was the actual room that they use for the launch/land/flying...the air traffic control of space

The actual rocket scientist sits in the middle all the way to the back.

Trying to make him happy while we listen :)

The training center...it was huge!!!

They had tarps on everything because the damage from hurricane IKE

this is the arm they use to doc to the space station...i think...

Ty had a blast! i could not believe how big everything is!

The "blasters" i have no idea what they are really called

Ty could stand up in the center of this thing it is so big

this is i think the 3rd part of the shuttle.

Colton and Goofy Cayden

It is hard to take a picture it was so big!

Another Section

This is the top/front

NASA was a lot better than i thought it would be. There was a lot that we did not do.

This is at the Children's Museum

There were a few really cool things but there were a lot of kids and not that much to do there.

This was a big water tank that fed water to different activities...you could build your own boat and then race it.

this was a water tornado

The kids had fun and it was nice to get out of the house.
