  • Mission Task Checklist
    Expedition 321 Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex Self-Guided Field Trip Facilitator’s Guide BEFORE YOU ARRIVE: Spend some time pre-teaching the history and science concepts for the exhibits you will be visiting. More information is available at www.nasa.gov (click on the “For Educators” tab) and www.kennedyspacecenter.com (click on the “Experience” tab). Make copies of the Expedition 321 Logbook for your students and chaperones. For a bifold booklet, print out the PDF file, make 2-sided copies (invert every other original when collating) and staple in the centerfold (set stapler to 5-1/2 inches). Assign students to teams and team positions. Ideally, there should be four students to a team; two or three teams can easily share one chaperone. Decide which activities you are going to explore. There are 20 tasks in the Expedition 321 Logbook, but it is unlikely that students will be able to complete all of these in a single day. WHEN YOU ARRIVE: If coming by bus, you will be dropped off and picked up in Parking Lot 4 near the main entrance. If coming by car, pay a parking fee for each vehicle. You may pick up your tickets at the Will Call / Group Sales window near the main gate. Have your reservation number as well as any required tax-exempt certificates. There will be a security check of your bags. No hard-sided coolers are permitted inside the complex.

  • Doing Niagara Falls If You're Stuck on the American Side
    Meiqianbao/ Shutterstock Doing Niagara Falls If You're Stuck on the American Side By Jason Cochran The legendary Niagara Falls, one of the greatest natural attractions in North America, straddles the border between Ontario, Canada, and New York State. In an ideal tourism situation, you'd be able to drive or stroll across the Rainbow International Bridge to enjoy the view from both banks of the Niagara River. But sometimes you just can't get over the border. Maybe you don't have enough time. Maybe your legal status won't allow it. Or maybe you happen to be living through a once-in-a-lifetime global pandemic that has sealed national borders. It's all good! If you're restricted to the U.S. side, you won't find yourself over a barrel. There's plenty to do. In fact, some of the best activities in the Niagara Falls area are on the American side. Pictured above: Terrapin Point, at right, juts into the eastern side of the Falls from Niagara Falls State Park in New York State. Niagara Falls State Park Niagara Falls State Park If we're being honest, the Canadian side has richer options for quality lodging and tourist amenities, although the stuff on that riverbank tends toward cheesy honky-tonk. New York's territory beside the Falls, on the other hand, has been preserved from development since the 1880s. In fact, the area is now the oldest state park in the United States. The more-than-400-acre Niagara Falls State Park, which is separated from the core of town by a breakaway river, is speckled with whitewater-spanning bridges, river islands, curving walkways, and native animals.

  • “The Eagle Has Landed” Statue to Honor Apollo 11 Crew
    Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex Unveils Moon Tree Garden, “The Eagle Has Landed” Statue to Honor Apollo 11 Crew CAPE CANAVERAL (July 12, 2019) – KENNEDY SPACE CENTER – Today, Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex kicked off the Apollo 11 50th anniversary celebrations by unveiling the Moon Tree Garden, a dramatic new accent to the grounds of the Apollo/Saturn V Center. The garden, which features 12 trees grown from seeds that orbited the Moon, also includes a George Lundeen sculpture that depicts Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins in their space suits. The statue, titled “The Eagle has Landed,” is a gift to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex from Rocket Mortgage by Quicken Loans, the nation’s largest mortgage lender. “As the nation’s top mortgage lender, we treat the impossible as an opportunity,” said Casey Hurbis, chief marketing officer of Rocket Mortgage. “We presented this statue to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex to honor the courage and importance of the Apollo 11 mission, who achieved the impossible by landing man on the Moon and into the annals of history.” The Moon Trees were provided by Rosemary Roosa, daughter of veteran Apollo 14 astronaut Stuart Roosa, and president of the nonprofit Moon Tree Foundation. The foundation was created in honor of her father, who took seeds from loblolly pine, sycamore, sweet gum, redwood, and Douglas fir trees on his space mission as part of a joint U.S. Forest Service/NASA project. The seeds, which have all orbited the Moon, were later germinated and planted around the world to share the story of the mission.
