Ignite Your Senses

Witnessing a live rocket launch is a jaw-dropping, bucket-list experience. Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex provides the closest public viewing of rocket launches with live launch commentary from space experts. Viewing locations are within a few miles/kilometers from the launch pads, so you can see and feel the liftoff of spacecraft leaving Earth under the full power of mighty rocket engines.

The visitor complex may offer Launch Transportation Tickets (LTTs) for rocket launches. LTTs for these launches are typically available in addition to daily admission and may be purchased ahead of time or day-of if the viewing locations are not sold out.
