To me, one of the highlights of our visit to the Houston Space Center was the stop at the Saturn V rocket display. This thing is HUGE. It is a little mind boggling to stand there and think about task this machine was designed for and the limited technology (by today's standards) that was available to make it happen.
A couple of weeks ago, I took Pete and his robotics team to a competition in Houston, Texas. We headed down a day early so that we could spend a day at the Houston Space Center at the NASA facility. It was well worth the extra day, the place was amazing and it was a lot of fun to be there with a group of engineering kids. It was really cool to see the space shuttle, the Space K Falcon 9, and everything else. When we finished at the space center, we made a quick stop at the beach.
