Experience the life of an astronaut at the Space Center near your Webster apartment.
Living in the apartments at the Lodge on El Dorado is a great experience, but who knew that it was so close to an experience out of this world? The Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center is only minutes from Webster, where we’ve been sending men into space for fifty years now. To commemorate the center’s golden anniversary, head to the Houston Space Center for some fun and informative exhibits.
At the Houston Space Center you can really get the NASA experience. In the Space Theater, you’ll see a show that takes you through the life of an astronaut from the moment they’re notified they’re chosen to their first mission. Have an IMAX experience of launching into space in the Blast Off Theater, or see astronauts and engineers at work with the NASA tram tour. There are countless ways to experience the life of an astronaut and the world of NASA at this interesting and fun location.
Have you been to the Houston Space Center? Make plans to visit and learn more about NASA and the Space Center before their golden anniversary is over.
