These include actual interactive Shuttle Launch Consoles\, hardware from the blockhouse at Pad 36A that launched hundreds of Atlas-Centaur rockets\, items from the Mercury\, Gemini and Apollo programs\, rare spacecraft models and lots more in our galleries dedicated to NASA’s manned space program and the contractors who made the space program a reality. \n– Kids of all ages will enjoy watching a “comet” created before their eyes by Mark Marquette\, who heads up our astronomy program. \nEvening Program… \nAn Urban Stargazing event in the ASM parking lot will begin at 7 pm\, with the Moon\, and three planets visible through telescopes of various sizes.
