Kennedy Space Center

Rocket Garden: NASA Rockets

Rocket Garden
The Rocket Garden During a Launch

Travel back in time and history in the NASA Rocket Garden.

Dramatic lighting brings historic NASA rockets back to life with an adventurous and patriotic scheme, highlighting each fuselage with brilliant white uplight, bathing the site with techno-blue accents and heating the engines with flickering red-orange light.

Here you can experience the very same Redstone, Atlas and Titan rockets that first put NASA astronauts in space, or climb aboard Mercury, Gemini and Apollo capsules – and get an idea of the cramped quarters America's astronaut pioneers endured.

Free tours of the NASA Rocket Garden are given at 10:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. daily. Admission is required.

Price: Included with General Admission
