Kennedy Space Center
It has been a great day... a busy day! We are tired so today's post will list the highlights:
We visited the Kennedy Space Center today to tour the facility and to make our team's presentation. In the morning, our group toured KSC and what a thrill. We were able to see the Space Shuttle Atlantis on the launch pad being prepared for next Friday's launch. We were able to get as close as you possibly could without actually going up to the pad.
While touring, we also visited the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), the Apollo Center (where our chicken friend, Glenn, joined the group.
After lunch, Crissy and Libby presented our team's robotics investigation. They did an awesome job.
At dinner, retired astronaut Robert Springer spoke to our group. We all enjoyed his presentation about his career as a pilot and Shuttle astronaut.
