Kevin Wang:

"Must-see attraction in Houston Plenty of exhibits, shows, and historical artifacts to check out. I'd highly recommend making sure to incorporate the tram tour (to either the Mission Control or Astronaut training facility) into your visit. I found the show schedule extremely confusing to figure out. The shows are only listed on one area and the listed locations don't match the actual names on the brochure map. Other: Food court is solid. The Indian place offers a healthy, affordable option."

"They have hugely improved the visitor experience. An ideal way to experience the center is to come at 10am and have all tours by 2pm. They take you to interesting sites in 3 tram tours, which you have to book from inside the place you enter. Mission control center is a must, but tbh all 3 are great. Last tram leaves at 3pm. Museum closes at 5pm."

"This is an incredible place to visit. We took our family and our young kids loved it. Being up close to rockets and getting to go inside the sky lab and take multiple tours; one of the astronaut training facility and the other of Saturn V at rocket park are a must!! We spent the entire day there. We brought our own snacks since we are vegan we knew it would be limited at the food court. They did have a veggie burger and fries we could eat, that was a plus! Even with four young kids and a long day it was all worth it!!"

"It felt really great visiting this place. Initially I was reluctant to come here. But once I entered the Space Centre, it felt amazing. It is truly astonishing to see what we as humans have achieved over the years. To see the spacesuits, the Saturn V rocket and other things is something I will always remember."
