In January, my mom and I went to NASA Johnson Center, and after trying to get into the actual center, we were redirected to the visitors center. It's gonna be mostly photos from here on out.

| Waiting to get in, and then my lunch. |
Inside, we looked at things for a while like these control panels.
Then we got on the tram to the one, the only NASA JOHNSON
STYLE CENTER!
 |
| The historic landmark thingy outside Mission Control. |
 |
| Up the stairs to the original control room. |
 |
| This photo uses more megabytes than were needed for each Apollo mission. |
Then we were back on the tram to a building with a bunch of things used for training people for space.
 |
| This is a facsimile of what the Russians use to bring people back from space. It lands on the ground, not the water. |
Then back to the tram to see the rocket exhibits.
 |
| Some pile of dirt in this photo is important for a reason I can't quite remember. |
ROCKETS!
 |
| I love this shot. |
 |
| Not a dunce cap. |
 |
| Who knew NASA created the daleks? |
Outside was cool, then we went inside and, well, see for yourself...
 |
| OH MY GOD! IT'S HUGE! |
Then we got back on the tram to go back to the visitor's center, where we toured exhibits about the space station and various missions.
 |
| Mom touching the moon rock. |
 |
| The tin can that we used to shoot guys into space for the first time. |
  |
| We shot two guys up in this tin can. |
We also got to tour the space station model that had been used for training, and the one seen in the first pictures in this post.
Back inside now.
That's what I got, hope you enjoyed.
