KSC Visit 2011-10-28

I said in Bart's thread I'd post some photos from our KSC visit. Here goes Part 1.

A few pics from the rocket park, including the boss and me with a Mercury capsule. No way we could fit in it.
A couple of shots inside the conference center.
Very appropriate bus number for the tour.
Lunch with An Astronaut (retired), with VIP sticker in pink.

Part 2 to follow.

Part 2

This eagle's nest has been there for over 10 years and is added to every nesting season.

Inside the VAB with shuttle being stripped for display.

VAB.

Pads 39a and 39b from close by. The Atlantic is behind me.

Most of the launch pads both NASA and military.
