Astronaut Hall of Fame Titusville Florida


Had you thought foreclosures were an issue related to the world then read on to know it has affected the United States Astronaut Hall Of Fame too. Initially situated in Melbourne it went to the foreclosures in 1990 and then after many attempts of privatization it came into the hands of NASA who have seen the hurdle off. Now this tourist spot is located in Titusville Florida and you cannot miss it as it is put up just in front of the Kennedy Space center. 



This is one of the must visit places for the space geeks boasting of astronaut memorabilia it’s also the world’s largest. The United States Astronaut Hall Of Fame is really amazing as the design seems to be inspired by the sci fi films giving a dark feel with halogen lights something which all of us can relate to The Star Wars movie. They have also given the perfect finish with the audio clippings of rocket roaring, Nixon and Kennedy speeches, astronaut voices and more space related audios chasing you all over the place.



There are exhibits of Jim Lovell's Boy Scout sash, Buzz Aldrin's high school football jersey, Deke Slayton's Mercury survival knife, goggles and flight gloves of John "MIG Mad Marine" Glenn, Gus Grissom's controversial space suit and more spaceman outfits & accessories.




The Hall of fame have accomplished one of the tough feats by short listing 66 astronauts from around 275 Americans who defied gravity. Situated on a quiet corner it just brushes up your memory if you are a space buff keeping note of the men who made it outside the world alive.



The most exciting part of the United States Astronaut Hall Of Fame is "Astronaut Adventure" where the tourists can take their trip to space by strapping themselves to get a feel of the moon gravity, space shuttle cockpit scheduled for landing and also they have accomplished to get the aroma of the moon. 





The hall of fame is a great place to visit for the space buffs but at time you find some of the programs irritating. If you could sit through Star Wars Movie n times then you would love this place for the rest of the big no to sci-fi audience, relax yourself in your Florida Vacation Home.
