My husband and I stopped at the Space Center on our way down to Galveston, and I'm so glad we did. Tons of stuff to see and do!. The tram lines were very long, but with it being included in the price of admission, I can't complain too much. I wish we had more time to spend there, as we were not able to catch one of the movies. I'd plan on at least 4-6 hours there to see the exhibits, take the tram tour(s), and at least one movie. I Can't wait to come back the next time we visit the area agian.

I bought my ticket online before arrival (it said it was good for a year following purchase) and avoided the line ups. I arrived right at opening time and it wasn't too busy yet. I immediately went to get a timed ticket for the Apollo control room to do that first thing. The tour and presentation was very interesting, I would definitely recommend doing it. It was only about 45 minutes in total but by the time we arrived back from the tram the main building was full of families and children and only got busier as the day went on. The various galleries were really cool: Apollo era, astronauts, and Mars were a few of the things touched on. The other tram tour where we visited rocket park, one of the control rooms (future Orion control room we were told), and the astronaut training facility was also very good and very informative.

A must do for any space lover. Lots of moon artifacts and information on the various space missions that have occurred. Seeing the Saturn V rocket is a must. The center does get busy but we found that doing the tours earlier eliminated having to interact with big crowds.
