The Atlantis

When we got to the Kennedy Space Center we went to the Atlantis space shuttle experience. The Atlantis was the strongest rocket ever built. There we went on the simulation and it was so fun. Next we went to the rocket garden and learnt about satellites and stuff.

Then we went to lunch with Al Worden who went to the moon. Yet he stayed in orbit and did a lot of experiments. One of the last things we did was to get on a bus and see all the buildings that they used to make the rockets. The HQ, the rocket assembly building and the launch platform. The launch platform has giant pylons bigger than the rocket assembly building. The rocket assembly building is really tall and can hold 3 and a half Empire State Buildings. They are making a new and better HQ.
