NASA space center.

Hi guys, here comes a little update from Houston. Today we woke up to a sunless sky and twenty degreess celsius so we decided to drive an hour away to the space center NASA. We were very excited about this trip because we had thought of going there for a few days now.

The Space Center NASA is a museum and was opened the 26th of October 1992. The Center is a year-round open museum. During our time there we learned how astronouts live in space and some facts were more shocking then others. We also went on a guided tram tour where we got to see an original saturn rocket and the room where astronauts test equipment and their reactions with space in simulators. The Saturn rocket was an American human-rated expendable rocket used by NASA´s Apollo and Skylab programs from 1967 until 1973. The rocket has three stages. With every stage included the rocket is 110.6 meters high and has a diameter of 10.2 meter.


This is the training centre for astronauts.

Behind this door you came in to a space ship.





Nora in space, haha :-)

A beautiful day in Texas.


Now we are going to relax with a movie before we go to bed and prepare for a full day by the pool. Nighty from the cowgirls!
