- Today we took a trip out to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, we got to see the new exhibit, Heroes & Legends and the Astronaut Hall of Fame. We met Robonaut, the robotic astronaut and took the bus tour around the NASA complex before ending the day at the Space Shuttle Atlantis exhibit. There we saw a very moving memorial exhibit for Columbia and Challenger. We hope you enjoyed this space vlog! Thanks for watching and we'll see you tomorrow with a new vid!

That piece of the Challenger they have in that little memorial spot had the American flag on it and When I saw that I just felt an overwhelming feel of emotion. How amazing that the piece they find had the flag on it, how touching.
those solar/walkways would be perfect for Disney!!!
They would be great for Disney!
Alyssa Fizzy they should at least put them in tomorrowland, that would be amazing!
Alyssa Fizzy they should have those solar powered umbrella charging stations too!
Alyssa Fizzy they should have those in every house!!
@@TheTimTracker yasss it would be good for Tomorrowland
One trip we made to watch a shuttle launch actually stopped on a side road (watch Adam The Woo at the 7:45 mark) and watched the shuttle launch, it was a restricted area, I went up the road and asked a security guard if we where allowed to be on this road...He said "If I can't see you I don't know your here" so we went down the road and sat on the bank, it was pitch black until they ignited the boosters then it lit up like noon time you could actually feel the Radiant Heat from it ACROSS that bay. Would have been early 90s maybe 93-95 sometime. Really cool, my kids where privileged to 2 shuttle launches...Really breath taking experience... Another GREAT Video
Alan shepherd went to my high school and he actually gave our school the mascot of an astronaut , we were called the astros
That's cool. Harrison Ford and Hillary Clinton went to my high school. One went on to influence the world and the other joined the dark side.
Cool :)
i was literally thinking the same thing you thought!!!! that was one of president kennedy's greatest quotes!!!
"We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard"
however, and as I've read and now understand... the quote was not used because the quote itself when put into context, carries cold war memories and baggage. the full quote being:
"We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others, too."
it's still such an awesome quote!!!
Tim, you're a very good tour guide. Jen, you're a very good editor. Great video.
When I went, I was in the heroes and legends building at the beginning and looking at all the pods (from he beginning). Inside one of them was a little boy looking at a spacesuit with so much wonder in his eyes and his dad thought I wanted him out to take a photo and made with move and I honestly am still mad about that like I missed out on such an amazing photo opportunity
Always wanted to visit the Kennedy Space Center! I definitely need to visit soon! Thank you for posting this video! 😃🚀
Just wanted to check if you have been yet 😉
Tim, my mom was pregnant with me when the challenger tragedy happened and remembers it vividly to this day. I remember the Columbia tragedy. Seeing the exhibition actually made me tear up a little. I also remember going to the Kennedy space center when I was little and seeing the launch pad and the eagles nests! You gave me such nostalgia with this one. Awesome video!
Adam the Woo!! Awesome to see my 2 favorite Disney RUclipsrs come together!
:-)

When Tim mentions remembering where he was when the Challenger disaster happened it took me right back too! Mrs. Johnston's biology class, my sophomore year at Eau Gallie High School. We all knew it looked wrong but when our principal officially announced it....gahhh!! Walked around the rest of classes in a daze. So sad.
Oh my gosh Tim this brings back some MAJOR memories. When I was in the 3rd grade our school took us on a field trip out to the Kennedy Space Center and we stayed overnight in that room with the Saturn V rocket and my dad and I slept under the American flag seen at around 15:10. This is such a throwback that was 11 years ago.
Little googling says that the first truck was a (Clark) Cortez brand moterhome. Originally made by the Clark forklift company. ...the more you know.
It looks so cool to have for an moterhome! I kind of want to get one now!!!
Love seeing y'all in my neck of the woods. My dad worked at the cape during the Apollo, Skylab and Shuttle missions. After Challenger, there were a lot of lay offs and he left at the time. Amazing to be here during the golden age and hopefully, the new SLS missions will bring some of it back. Now I need to head back up to the visitor's enter. I forgot how much I enjoy it!
The memorial for Columbia and Challenger is incredibly moving and well-executed. Cheers to them for being so thorough and respectful. Thanks for documenting this for us, Tim.
So strange to see pieces of the tragic two flights. Sad yet an awesome reminder of the bravery of those men and women. Truly the bravest explorers of our day!
Jen and Tim. You are amazing!!!! I always look forward to your videos!!!
Thank you so much!!!
I'm from northwest Indiana but if you live in central Florida, you pretty much will never "bored" I've been to central Florida like 10 or 11 times in my love and I've loved every time I've gone. Great video by the way!
Thanks Tim, my family and I visited KSC a year ago, I couldn't believe how emotional I got, particularly when Atlantis "revealed" herself - keep up the good work
This made me cry. In a great way. Just such an amazing rememberance and such a huge part of our history.
Tim. Thanks so much for sharing. As a kid I grew up right next to the Johnson Space Center in Houston and went to school with children of the engineers and astronauts who flew the first shuttle missions. When you showed the fragments from the shuttles It brought tears to my eyes with all those memories from the day Challenger blew up flooding back. I didn't even realize those displays existed. My wife and I are heading down in October and the space center just made my list to stop and pay my respects
Love the Tim Tracker!! And Jen!!! Your videos are an escape for me! A blessing truly!!
Tim, this video contains more WOW's than any other. Each time you say WOW, we just laugh. Love your vids!! We have drinking games everytime you say WOW, btw..
Hehe! That sounds like a fun game! I was blown away by this stuff!!!
All these years later and I still get emotional over the Challenger disaster. Thank you for sharing.
Tim that was amazing!!!! It touched my heart how many brave people went into space and didn't return!!! We owe them so much. I too remember the challenger accident so well couldn't believe what I was seeing on TV. Thank you so much for your video you make my day!!! Living in England I love seeing all the new exciting things in Florida !!!
Thanks for the tour. It was fun to see some of the areas we visited when we were there in June of 2012. The space shuttle area was under construction when we were there. We did see Space Shuttle Discovery at the National Air & Space Museum Udvar-Hazy Space Center in Chantilly, Virginia. Very impressive.
Such an awesome video Tim. I loved seeing all the cool stuff at NASA. I've been there a couple times and it's fun. I love your channel so much. Keep up the great work
Thank you so much Nick! I love going to the Space Center!
This was an amazing tour for those of us not likely to be able to visit anytime soon. Heading over to the states from here in the U.K. and doing what I affectionately call 'the space tour' (Florida, Texas, JPL and Edwards just off the top of my head) is on my bucket list for once my children are grown. Until then I am glad for things like this.
One thing though and I am sure you know this but I wish you had brought it up in the vid, 'astronaut ice cream' is a pure sales gimmick and nothing like it was even flown in space.
Thanks for bringing us along with you on all these wonderful journeys. I probably won't be able to visit ANY of the locations you and Adam visit, so these videos certainly help to vicariously enjoy all the Theme Parks and Locations such as the Kennedy Space Center, that y'all Visit. this was Awesome!!
We loved everything about this vlog!! Thanks for taking us along! I totally feel the same way towards the space shuttle. Amazing!
Wow, Tim, this has changed so much since my first visit in 1999, I have to go back after seeing this. It's such a cool place! Thanks buddy for bringing back the memories.
*Woohoo! Lucky for me, because in July I’m going to the Kennedy space center, because of Orlando, FL and a cheer competition, nationals! Wish me luck..!*
Going there in June, couldn't find a better and more detailed video on RUclips! Subscribed, and i "hit the bell". Thanks Tim
I really can't thank you enough for posting this video. I find all of the stuff you saw amazing, and I doubt I will ever make it to see it in person. So, again a HUGE THANK YOU for making it possible for me to see it! I live in NJ not far from Lakehurst. NAVAIR is there, as well as the site of the Hindenburg crash. Very similar style buildings, really fun to see the similarities. 😁
The Challenger section made me tear up. I remember watching it at school. It was so exciting that a teacher was going to space and then not believing what we saw!
I remember going there a few years ago and my dad, who is in the air force, was in complete fanboy mode. He made me take a picture of him in front of everything.
Thank you for this video. I really appreciate it. I haven't gone to this place in over 10 years. It was nice to come back.
I LOVE space!! It is interesting to see how it has changed, the last time I was there was when they launched the very last space shuttle. That night was the best and even from a distance it was super loud. Love your vids Tim!
SPACE NERDS UNITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't been here since my honeymoon (yes, we're nerds like that and hit NASA stops all along the Southern coast for our honeymoon). So nice to see it again and how much has changed!
Jackson would love this place now that he has voiced his wish to become an astronaut!!
Wow this was so much enjoyment to watch! Thank you for making this virtual tour.
I wish I would get as excited about schoolrooms as Tim does 😂
Awesome video. Haven't been here since I was a kid, and definitely need to make a return trip. Thanks for such a thorough video of KSC.
hey kids its number 2 big ben
TheBarleyHorrorShow nice vids bro i subd
We actually took the Up-Close: Launch Pad Tour of 39A during our trip to Orlando in October 2012 - it was so cool to actually stand in the flame trench.
Really enjoyed this vlog!! I haven't been since the discovery launch. I need to go back. Thanks again for sharing this experience!!
This really is a great day out. I haven’t been for a few years, so many new things to see. I will be adding it to my itinerary when we visit in November.
Thank you so much for this video. You made me go back to our last family trip to Orlando, when we went to KSC, my husband loved the trip and we had so much fun
Always enjoy your work Tim but the KSC video was exceptional, thanks so much, really enjoyed your enthusiasm and detailed info.
This was so interesting, I have never thought about going to the Kennedy Space Center but after watching this would love to add it to my travels. Thank you for sharing.
I've been watching you guys for a couple years and recently decided to go back and watch all your vlogs from the beginning. You actually mentioned those pressure pads waaaaay back when you first started vlogging, it was a video where you suggested all these million dollar ideas and only asked for a small $10k cut if we ever made any money off of them 😜 anyhow I thought it was cool to see these pressure pad energy things after hearing you talk about them so long ago! Also, I ordered a ding dang shirt from you guys and I'm so excited it just came in the mail today! Love you guys
I totally enjoy watching you and Jenn. Getting super excited to visit Orlando in December. Getting heaps of ideas too. Please do some videos of what visitors can do on the days we don't visit the theme parks. Coming from Perth, Australia, so surprise us!
Just moved to Daytona beach a year ago. I love watching all the SpaceX launches from the beach and cant wait to go to Cape Canaveral for the manned launches. 👍😁👍
I went there this summer!! It was so cool! My favorite parts were Atlantis and the slide because come on, ITS A SLIDE! I also saw a launch, forgot what rocket but it was so cool!!
What an awesome vlog, I love Kennedy Space Centre and cannot wait to go back xxx
Michael Anderson's brother did a story core recording a year or so ago about how he wanted to learn so very much when stuff was tough years ago. It is inspiring but a little sad too because of course this is hi talking in memoriam.
Great video! I love the history of space exploring and I am now getting my son into it too !! Thanks again!!
Thanks Tim and Adam, I really enjoyed that. I would love to see the space center and all the rockets, but as you can see by my name it will never be. I love watching Adam's and your blog's. Keep happy and smiling. Love to all including Jenn and Bandit. 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
ALMOST 200K!
Great vlog Tim, it was just like I was there. Really appreciated the tour and information you provided!
Tim & Jen, this was such a fun, educational and beautiful video! Well done & thank you :)
Thank you so much for this insightful video! It has been years and years since I have been to the Kennedy Space Center. I was debating about taking my family here when we visit FL in March next year. I was worried my 9yr old daughter might find it dull, but after viewing this, I think there will be a lot to entertain her! Thanks Tim! We are really looking forward to our upcoming vacation!!
Freeman and Williams were in the same T38 when it crashed into the assembly building their spacecraft was being built.
Ohh yes my visit to KSC was great by all means. I really love this place. I was here at the 21 of june 2017. I had the time of my life here and saw the space shuttle Atlantis. I have always loved the shuttles, it is sad that they are not flying anymore. They where the greatest of them all. I also saw wreckage parts of the Columbia from 2003 accident, it was a very very sad story. I saw the jacket and coffecup that belonged to dear astronaut Laurel Clark and it was quite special. She has always been in my heart and will always be. She was a wonderful person. I saw also things that belonged to the other astronauts on Columbia and it gave me something to think about. The whole experience here this day was a thing I will remember for the rest of my life. I will maybe come back soon too.
I'm hopefully going in October. I've been so excited for you to upload ever since seeing the tweet that you went to KSC!
Totally loved this one 👍🏼 Thank you soo much for sharing!
My school's original symbol was the challenger so when my school went on a field trip, I put a stone by the memorial to honor those in Challenger. I went for the first time in December 2015.
Incredible video Tim, thanks for putting it up!
Thank you for such an awesome video! That place sure has changed since I was there last, 35yrs. ago! I just made an Apollo 11 tribute video for it's 49th anniversary. Keep up the great work!
Awesome trip video. That place is so cool, glad you guys had fun!
Thanks so much for filming this!! I always wanted to go to the Space Centre, but we never got to it when we were in Florida! So thanks for letting me live my dream!! :)
I was actually present for Atlantis landing! The sound of it entering the atmosphere is something that stuck with me, and it brought a tear to my eye to see it so close up in this video.
I was there in 87 - thanks for an updated tour. You videos are always entertaining & I love getting to see places I have never been or have been away from for years. You are my Avatar. I travel vicariously through you. Is that weird? LOL
Hehe! We are glad to show off places like this! It has changed so much since 87!
One of my favorite parts of my Florida trip last June!!
Fun fact: They never actually took Astronaut Ice Cream to space.
Holobrine I think it went on only Apollo 10 when the opened it it just had dust everywhere
@@boringbaron4635 apollo 7 was the flight not apollo 10
Holobrine it’s they and no they did I now because I’m a astronaut but retired
Check your facts
@@shannonwhittleton5146 chill
Really like your videos.Even though I lived near Kennedy Space Center I never been there.I remember the space shuttles and hearing the boom every time it landed.Keep up the good work
Omg i had chills looking at the debris from challenger and Columbia
This was awesome!! Thanks for sharing. I'm partial to the Kitty Hawk, being from NC.
Space is awesome. Thank you for taking us!!
Great video! Never seemed too interested in going but after seeing all this awesome stuff we will have to stop by on our next trip down there! Hi from Michigan!
Man I'm so happy you caught the Atlantis reveal. I wasn't filming and wasn't expecting it and it was the best part of my entire holiday. The forever remembered bit was fascinating to look at aswell. 《Insert holiday blues》 What a great holiday.
My mom was in tears watching this.
She loves space
So cool! This reminds me of when I was a kid and we went to the US for the first time. I think it was either 1991 or 1992(end of july/beginning of August), I was about 7 or 8 years old and while we were there, I remember Atlantis being launched into space. We were in Florida at the time and we visited the Kennedy Space Center a few days before the launch and Atlantis was already set into place on the platform ready for take off, a few days later (or it might have been the day after, I don't remember it that well anymore) we saw him go up. It made a big impression on me :)
Love the place! Never fails to give goosebumps.
I love stuff about space and NASA. when I was in school as a kid i would write to NASA and they would send me stuff about the different shuttles and astronauts. they would also send me autographed photos of astronauts as well. I remember getting big thick brown envelopes from NASA. I have been to Goddard Space Center but never Kennedy. this vlog brings out the inner geek in me.
Thank You. Great video quality!
That window at 13:41 though, you kept looking at it like "Will you shut up?" XD. Nice video, keep up the good work!
This was so interesting. Thank you for sharing! A trip is on my list.
That was so educational and well put together! Great Job!
Thanks guys, love the Tim tour 😀
Thanks Tim, for the video. Loved going to KSC as a kid.
I love Adam the Woo.. Great guy & he shows lots of great unexplored places in the US. Of course, love watching you guys. New to your videos, but great ones so far. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool. I've been to see Endeavor and Discovery. I hope to make it to see Atlantis as well. Looks like a great experience there
Highly suggest taking one of their bus tours you get to see a lot of the premises including mission control ( from the outside ) they guides tell great history and stories for a very low price. The one that I was one was about 2 hours, but was on a comfortable air conditioned bus!
Tim and the Woo, two of my favorite people at my favorite place
Hey tim! awesome video. I have been subscribed to your channel for awhile now. I enjoy watching all your Disney related videos its become my way of experiencing anything Disney when I'm not able to go.
that was really cool and nice they had a section for the teacher who went into space . now you should ride mission space at epcot .
Beautiful job Tim. Thank you!!
I find the space centre fascinating, i went there Tim a long while ago, and then you had the astronaut encounter where you could ask questions. You Tim and top of the morning Adam made that great fun, Thankyou so enjoyed that, without those people who put their lives on the line to explore the universe, we would know very little about the sky's above 😀 x🍀
Wow so much history of the NASA space program thank you so much for showing me the tour Tim^_^
