🪐 Galactic Ingenuity at Kennedy Space Center's Taste of Space
We’re all made of stardust. ✨
Human curiosity of celestial bodies and the greater universe can be abstractly viewed as attempt to find our greater selves. The science of this journey ranges from the construction of a 363-foot-tall Apollo 11 space craft, to uncovering the physics behind escaping the earth’s atmosphere. The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex pays homage to human accomplishments and advancements in aeronautical science as we strive to understand celestial phenomenons.
Soaking in astronomical history and driving stellar curiosity requires fuel. The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex features seasonal food offerings, including Taste of Space 2021. Orbit Café hosts a family-friendly, fast casual dining area with guests ordering via kiosks for a truly customizable meal. Take a sight of our bites!
