KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- An aerial view of the KSC Visitor Complex shows the Astronauts Memorial Space Mirror in the foreground. Names of the 17 American astronauts who gave their lives to the quest to explore space are engraved in the mirror-finished surface. Sunlight projecting through the names appears to emblazon them against a reflection of the sky. Behind the mirror is the Center for Space Education. In the background is the Rocket Garden, exhibiting early rockets from the space program
