formerly Challenger Space Center - NOW The Earth and Space Expedition Center

The Earth and Space Expedition Center provides an exciting space-based learning environment where schoolchildren, families, senior citizens, corporate teams and others experience a full dome planetarium show, explore the universe with a Deep Space Gallery than brings the images from high-powered telescopes within sight.
