3rd visit with children aged 9 & 12. All enjoyed. Loved the live 30 min talk with real astronaut.
A really good day out, very interesting and informative......our kids weren't as engaged....but maybe that was to be expected after a week of Disney and Universal.
My 13 year old son loved this. We did the lunch with an astronaut, the food was nice and the astronaur inspiring.
Adults and kids really enjoyed it here, made a nice change from the parks. We spent part of the afternoon at Cocoa Beach which was easy to find from the centre
This attraction is worth a visit, lots to see and do in quite a relaxed environment. We went during the Easter break and there were no long queues for anything. Only thing preventing an excellent is the price of on site meals, very expensive even when compared to places like Universal Studios etc.
