Description

Many of us have dreamed about leaving Earth and exploring other worlds, but the reality is that only a select few have had the honor to explore the great beyond. Luckily for us, there is Space Center Houston. Not only is it the Official Visitor Center of NASA Johnson Space Center but in its own right, it is a leading science and space exploration learning center. You'll get a behind the scenes look at NASA on the NASA Tram Tour, experience a virtual Martian sunset, touch a moon rock and more. With more than 400 space artifacts plus multiple seasonal exhibits, Space Center Houston offers an exciting array of attractions for people of all ages.
