There is a mockup of the space shuttle on the grounds as you drive in the parking lot. As you enter the main building, you start to realize that this is a giant children's playground, with the Angry Birds play area for kids. There is a big theater showing films about space and another theater showing NASA's history of space... More

My husband and I found the visit most interesting and would urge visitors to sit through the demonstration where they show you what life is like in the space ship....how you eat, drink, sleep and go to the toilet! Most information and something you would not have learn about previously. We had only one problem; understanding what was being said... More

We did the Level 9 Tour which granted is expensive but well worth every cent! I am a NASA nerd but my partner doesn't have much interest and he loved it! The tour takes you around in a small group (our group only had 6 people) and takes around 5 hours. Its a complete behind the scenes tour and beyond... More

The tram tour was excellent and that is the only reason I would recommend this attraction for adults. The rest of the main building is focused on children (large gift shop, gigantic angry birds play area, myriad of simulators that cost extra, and educational displays). I thought the large amount of floorspace dedicated to a Felix Baumgartner exhibit was odd... More

Boomer in paradise! Young and old alike will enjoy the displays, talks, interactivity ... well worth a day to explore!

AMAZING! WONDERFUL! You could spend a whole day and not see everything! This is a must-see place, really exceptional experience!

Very family friendly. Great place for kids. Adults would love the bus tour and movies. If you are a space nut, GO!

Never been down to Houston to visit. Went with family to Space Center. Very much a kid oriented place; sometimes over the top in that regard. The movies in the theater were interesting. Took the tour and saw the Saturn V (holy cow that's huge). Wish we could have seen more of NASA. They have a food court (pricey) if... More

I've read scathing reviews here about how terrible the center is, and I just don't get it. Yes, parts seem outdated and we always hope for more exhibits, but it is still fantastic. If you are enamoured with space travel and all things science, then go! There are half price coupons available online and at nearby areas in Houston, so... More
