Vintage Photo Ops: Capture the moment in your best vintage attire with themed photo stations throughout the complex
Live Performances: Enjoy music by The Vocalitas, a swing-era and mid-century acappella group
Interactive Activities in Atlantis: Create your own Orion splashdown capsule, design tin foil hats, and color your way through space history
Lunar Rover Photo Ops: Snap a picture with the lunar rover at the Apollo/Saturn V Center
Comedy with Astro & Orbit: Catch this space-themed duo at the People’s Moon installation multiple times during the day
