Houston, We have a problem!

NASA Space Center Houston

📍 How to Get There:
- By Car: About 30 minutes from downtown Houston via I-45 S. Plenty of parking ($10).
- Public Transport:Take METRO bus #249 from Downtown Houston (less convenient; Uber/Lyft recommended).
- Tours: Some Houston city tours include NASA shuttle pickups—check Groupon or Viator.

⭐ The Experience:
✔ Must-See Exhibits: Real spacecraft, moon rocks, astronaut suits, and the Space Shuttle replica (great for photos!).
✔ Tram Tour Included: Ride to Mission Control and the Astronaut Training Facility (limited availability—go early!).
✔ Interactive & Kid-Friendly Simulators, VR experiences, and hands-on science displays.
✔ Gift Shop: Cool space-themed souvenirs (but pricey).

⚠️ Downsides:
❌ Huge & Crowded:Lots of walking—wear comfy shoes.
❌ Expensive Tickets ~$30/adult (check for online discounts).
❌ Food Options: Overpriced cafeteria food—bring snacks.
❌ September Heat: Outdoor areas are brutal—best visited Oct-April.

Final Verdict: 4/5 – A must-visit for space enthusiasts, but avoid peak summer heat. Go early, book tram tours first, and bring water! 🚀
