Visit to NASA

So on my vacation I went to The Kennedy Space Center, at Cape Canaveral, Florida. All I can say is WOW!!!!! If you're a Geek, even a sort of Geek like ME....this trip is a must! To actually see, the launch pads where Man went to the Moon from, the Control Rooms where the Apollo Mission was managed from, an ACTUAL Saturn 5 Rocket and all the Equipment that "would have" gone to the Moon if the Space program hadn't started focusing on the Shuttle instead of Apollo in 1972 was overwhelming for this tail end of the Baby Boomer (I guess I just gave away my age, can anyone say Tang?). If you want to see pictures of the Launch Pads and Saturn 5 Rockets, etc, check out http://i5.nyu.edu/~am26/NASA All I can say is WOW!!!
