Fantastic Experience. I have guests from out of town on a regular basis. When given the choice of what to do on days off, NASA is usually on the top of the list. I go with them always and even STILL, learn something new. It never gets old standing and viewing history, hearing different people's perspectives on the past and future of spaceflight. For me the 2 highlights are the Boeing 747 and Space shuttle display and also the Saturn 5 Rocket. There are a couple different tours. The lines can be STUPIDLY long especially in bad weather so beware of that. Do the tour early to be sure you get to it. There are restaurants inside, but I'd go to the ones outside the complex. Theres a gift shop of two and they are reasonable prices from what I can tell. Haven't tried the motion simulators yet but there is a computer based shuttle landing simulator that's free. It's not as easy as you think. The other cool thing is the moon rock. I think its the only place on earth where you can touch a piece- not sure on that one. There appears to be plenty of things for the kids to do although I've never taken kids there.
