VISIT KENNEDY SPACE CENTER

VISIT KENNEDY SPACE CENTER

If you travel to Florida, you definitely need to visit NASA, Kennedy space center. Nearby Orlando, located closer to the port Canaveral, ships famous dock place, is huge space, attractive and very unique in the World. Coming here from Orlando can be organized by bus tour and all information you can find on line. If you are already visit Disney world in Orlando and you have one more day left to explore than you have to see NASA.  Parking is available for free and daily tickets are $60 per person, including bus tour along Apollo/Saturn V Center, space shuttle Atlantis and the Universe Theater. Usually they open every day from 9.00 am to 6.00 pm. inside, you can find many restaurants to make a short break and have a lunch.

I visited NASA twice, first time September 2015 and second time in May 2019. I was very excited to visit this place again simple because first time it left me breath less.

If you are going to visit Kennedy space center it would be easier for you to buy tickets online. You can get all info and buy tickets here: https://www.kennedyspacecenter.com/

No matter is it weekend or other day of the week, NASA is always busy and crowded. Sometimes you need to wait more than one hour for available bus tours and also more than one hour for bus to come back. Definitely, my tip is to go on bus tour first. It is approximately 45 minutes drive in one way, where you can see Apollo and Saturn V center and bus driver will explain and talk during your tour. If you are lucky and visit everything in about 4 hours than your lunch break can be longer and you will still have time to see Universe Theater and do shopping too.

First building we reached by bus called Vehicle Assembly building or VAB. It is massive building with pre-manufactured space vehicle components such us Saturn V, Space shuttle and Mobile Launch Platform which was very impressive. After explanation and watching building from the bus we made a circle around and keep going to the Apollo/Saturn V center. Standing under gigantic Saturn V, the largest rocket ever flown is absolutely worth of moment. You can explore by yourself, take pictures, read all published articles, have a lunch, and do shopping .Every restaurant has free Wi-Fi connection and you can connect yourself to upload stunning pictures. In firing Room Theater I stayed to see short presentation.  Once I get tired walking around and seeing all, I went outside from the building through shopping area and wait for a bus to go back.

After bus tour my trip went to NASA Space shuttle Atlantis. Simple you cannot miss the home of space shuttle Atlantis. Inside, Atlantis has been mounted 9 meters above the ground. When the door open , you can see everything. This is a very unique opportunity to see a unique configuration. Before I have seen Atlantis , I watched short video presentation of shuttle returning from the space .After short video has finished ,on black screen I have seen  stars and doors opened pointing on the entrance to see this massive shuttle. After I took at least 100 pictures, I went to explore more places in the building. Inside, you can even go on slide if you want to.

If you missed opportunity to take a picture with blue NASA sign at the entrance you can still do on your way back. Next to the sign you can find all information of NASA plan to go on MARS. During the visit Kennedy space center you can find Mars rover car and you can take pictures as well. It looks like something out of this World and it was recently unveiled at Kennedy Space center. The goal is to inspirited developing plans for the journey to the red planet.  Very, very, very impressive car and I wished to have one.

Since NASA Kennedy Space center close at 6.00 pm, if you have time you can still reach shopping area and buy some souvenirs or just explore. I was very impressed by T-shirts, magnets and cup with expression “I need my space “on it.

To conclude, I would like to say if you need your space and if you want to see something different than definitely travel to Florida and visit Kennedy space center.

This was my review related to visit Kennedy space center and I hope it will benefit you. Read some of my other stories here and stay tuned for new ones!

POSETA KENEDI SPACE CENTRU

POSETA KENEDI SPACE CENTRU

Ako putujete na Floridu , ne propustite priliku da posetite Nasu, Kenedi space centar. Blizu Orlanda, lociran je blizu luke port Caneveral, najpoznatiju luku za kruzeve, Nasa je veliko mesto, atraktivno i veoma posebno u svetu. Dolazak ovde je moguć organizovano sa autobusom putem ture i sve informacije možete naći on line. Ako ste već posetili Dizni svet u Orlandu i imate još jedan dan za razgledanje onda treba da posetite Nasu. Parking je dostupan besplatno i dnevna karta je $60 po osobi, uključujući turu busom do Apolo-Saturn V centra, Atlantisa i Univerzuma. Uglavnom su otvoreni od 9 ujutru do 6 posle podne i unutra možete naći mnoge restorane za pauzu i za ručak.

Ja sam posetila NASU dva puta, prvi put u Septembru 2015 godine a drugi put u maju 2019. bila sam veoma uzbuđena da vidim ovo mesto ponovo pogotovo što prvi put sam ostala bez daha od lepote ovog mesta.

Ako želite da posetite Kenedi space centar bilo bi mnogo lakše ako kupite karte on line. Možete naći sve informacije i kupiti karte na ovom linku

Ne bitno da li je vikend ili neki drugi dan, NASA je uvek u gužvi i veoma posećena. Nekad je potrebno čekati i po sat vremena da bi se uradila tura busom i onda isto toliko čekanja, možda i više za povratak. Definitivno moj savet je da se uradi tura busom prvo. Samo vožnja traje oko 45 minuta u jednom smeru gde možete da vidite Apolo i Saturn V centar a vozač autobusa i ujedno i vodič će pričati i objasniti sve tokom vožnje. Ako imate sreće i posetite sve za oko četiri sata onda vam ostane i vreme za malo dužu pauzu za ručak i imaćete i vremena da vidite Universe Theater i još malo vremena za kupovinu suvenira.

Prva zgrada koju smo posetili sa autobusom je „Vehicle Assembly building ili VAB“. To je masivna zgrada sa pre manufakturnim prostorom za komponente vozila kao što su Saturn , Space vozilo i mobilna platforma za lansiranje raketa što je jako impresivno za videti. Posle detaljnog objašnjenja i pogleda na zgradu iz autobusa napravili smo mali krug i nastavili piut ka Apolo-Saturn V centru. Stajanje pored gigantskog Saturn V, najveće rakete koja je ikad letela u svemir, je apsolutno vrednog svakog momenta. Ovaj deo zgrade možete da istražujete sami, slikate, pročitate sve objavljene članke, ručate i kupite suvenire. Svaki restoran ovde ima besplatan Wi-Fi konekciju i možete da se konektujete da uploudujete svoje slike na socijalne mreže .U sobi koja je jednom izgorela se odžava kratka prezentacija o lansiranju raketa. Kada sma se umorila od šetanja i istraživanja, izašla sam iz zgrade i otišla da čekam autobus za nazad ka početnoj destinaciji.

Posle bus ture moj put se nastavio ka NASA space vozilu Atlantis. Jednostavno ne možete da propustite dom od vozila Atlantis. Unutar zgrade , Atlantis je montiran devet metara iznad zemlje. Kada se vrata otvore vidite sve. To je veoma specijalna prilika da se vidi specijalna konfiguracija vozila. Pre nego što sam videla Atlantis, pogledala sam kratak video zapis i prezentaciju kako se vozilo vratilo iz svemira. Kada je taj kratak video zapis završen, na crnom tv ekranu se pojavljuju zvezde i onda se vrata otvaraju pokazujući na ulaz gde se vidi ovo masivno vozilo Atlantis. Kada sam završila slikanje i slikala najmanje 100 slika , otišla sam da istražim vise mesta u samoj zgradi. Unutar pored Antantisa možete i čak da odete na tobogan ako želite.

Ako npr propustite priliku da se slikate sa plavim znakom NASA na ulazu, možete to da odradite na izlazu. Pored velikog plavog znaka možete naći informacije o Nasinom planu putovanja na Mars. Prilikom posete Kenedi space centru možete da vidite kao što rekoh vozilo ili Mars rover i tu možete takođe da se slikate. Izgleda kao neko vozilo van ovog sveta i skoro je napravljeno od strane Kenedi space centra. Cilj je inspiracija razvoja planova za put na crvenu planetu. Veoma, veoma , veoma zanimljiv auto i poželela sam da imam jedan takav.

Pošto se NASA Kenedi space centar zatvara u 6 sati posle podne, ako imate još vremena možete otići do nesta za kupovinu suvenira i kupiti po neki ili samo razgledati. Ja sam bila inspirisana sa majicama i šoljama sa sloganom „ Ja trebam prostor“ (I need my space) na istim.

Da zaključim, htela bih da kažem da ako trebate svoj prostor i želite da vidite nešto sasvim drugačije onda definitivno put treba da vas odvede u NASU, Kenedi space centar.

Ovo je moj pogled vezan za posetu Kenedi space centru i nadam se da će vam koristiti. Čitajte i druge moje priče i ostanite informisani za nove koje dolaze.
