WE visited NASA during the last week that the visitor center would ever be open. The security measures required to allow us inside the NASA compound made it quite apparent why they could no longer afford to keep the center open. Our IDs were checked at a guard house, then we drove into a parking lot where we all got out of the car our ids were checked again and our car was searched then we were escorted to the visitor center. This was all very educational. I was using my imagination about life in a police state.
After all of this we were able to see the displays. There was an interesting mix of hands on, pretend your an astronaut type things, and real space artifacts to look at. We also watched a film about life on the space station. Most notable information; human hair does crazy things in zero gravity!
