Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex has a brand new entrance and parking plaza! In the recent years, we’ve opened new attractions, like Heroes and Legends and updated the look and feel of the visitor complex with a modern KSC Bus Tour and fully revamped Astronaut Training Experience Center Exploring with Lockheed Martin to reflect NASA’s future missions to Mars. The new entrance complements all of these changes, welcoming you to a day of exploration.
Located off Space Commerce Way, it features six lanes with two automatic pay stations. As you approach the plaza, stunning views of NASA’s massive Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB), the Rocket Garden and the space shuttle’s orange external tank and boosters greet you.
The plaza itself is designed to look like NASA’s behemoth crawler-transporter, which carried the massive Saturn V rocket and the space shuttles to the launch pads. Now, it’s being prepped to transport NASA’s next rocket, the Space Launch System (SLS), to the launch pad in the near future!
