CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – The 90,000-square-foot "Space Shuttle Atlantis" facility, home to the now-retired space shuttle Atlantis, is a crowd pleaser at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida. The $100 million exhibit opened June 29, 2013. Guests may walk beneath a full-scale, 184-foot-tall static display of a space shuttle external fuel tank and twin solid rocket boosters as they enter the building. Inside, the exhibit features interactive displays that tell the story of the 30-year Space Shuttle Program and highlight the future of space exploration.
