CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – An aerial view shows the entire Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida. In the foreground at left are a full-size orbiter replica, the "Explorer," which allows guests to picture more clearly what it's like to live and work in space, as well as full-size, genuine solid rocket boosters and an external fuel tank (foreground, left). On the right at center is the rocket garden, which features eight authentic rockets from the past, including a Mercury-Atlas rocket similar to the one used to launch John Glenn into space in 1962 and climb-in Mercury, Gemini and Apollo capsule rep¬licas.
