  • not so much!
    By Mindy, 06/09/09
    We went with our 13 year old niece, our 8 year old son and our 2 year old daughter. The play area is really neat but it is so big it is hard to keep up with your child. The tour drives you to another area and then you get out and walk for almost an hour. They would not let us take a stroller so we ended up not going. The attraction at the time ...

  • So disappointed
    By Sarah H, 03/03/09
    I grew up going to the "old" NASA visitor's museum and getting a chance to walk around the rockets. I do realize that was quite a few years ago, but that experience left a great impression on me. I was very sad when I walked into Space Center Houston and discovered it was mostly about play centers and selling gifts. There was a ...

  • WARNING! RIP-OFF!!!!!!
    By honey2wit, 07/28/08
    Please consider visiting this place before you go! We just went yesterday. Myself, 3 boys, ages 9, 5, and 1, and my Mother. Something for everyone, right? That's what the ad says.

    So, we embark on our journey to astronaut life and space treasures. First of all, there are no space treasures, for real. Everything was a copy! Nothing ...

  • Boring!
    By A Yahoo! User, 06/06/08
    I was very disappointed in the space center. The price is way too high for the experience. There is not much to it. The kids play area takes up most of the space. The actual items from space are few and far between. The whole visit took about 30 minutes. I was bored stiff.

  • Space fun and great for kids
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/01/08
    My 6 year old twin boys had a blast. Kid activities including climbing play center which was worth admission alone. Only complaint was the 44" hight limit on 2 other kid's activities.

    Space artifacts and descriptions of the various Nasa missions is enough to keep adults interested as well.

    Tram ride was interesting but a bit of a ...

  • More for kids...
    By mackett, 04/03/08
    This would have been great for a day long trip with kids. I would compare this to a very fancy children's museum or playplace. Very little of the the space center is geared to adults. I had been to Kennedy Space Center in Florida so Houston had a lot to live up to. The tram tour is a ride around buildings that are not labeled and you cannot ...

  • awesome!
    By orange sunset, 03/25/08
    i like the short or no long lines. there are activities for all ages. The weather was pleasantly warm. i didn't like the expensive for certain suvenirs items for a family in a budget. In the KIds Center Jungle Gym was very fun for 48" tall or under only. i would give it a 4 star rate for time/money worthyness.

  • Nice place
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/23/08
    There was a lot to do here. I think the highlight of the trip was the tour of the buildings on campus. I would go back if given the chance.

  • I can't wait to go back!!!!!
    By Jee, 02/16/08
    I moved from Killeen,Tx to Houston just to get away. Then I came back to Killeen. When I was living in Houston I had an opportunity to go to many places such as the Space Center,Kemah and Galveston. My favorite is Kemah.I Really enjoy the board walk.I will be moving back to Houston. Killeen is very boring.
